Jeremiah 45

   |   

Message to Baruch

1 This is the message which Jeremiah the prophet spoke to (C1)Baruch the son of Neriah, when he had (C2)written these words in a book (F1)at Jeremiah's dictation, in the (C3)fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, saying:2 "This is what the LORD, the God of Israel says to you, Baruch:3 'You said, "Oh, woe to me! For the LORD has added grief to my pain; I am (C1)weary with my groaning and have found no rest."'4 "This is what you are to say to him: 'This is what the LORD says: "Behold, (C1)what I have built I am going to tear down, and what I have planted I am going to uproot, that is, all the people of the land."5 'But as for you, are you (C1)seeking great things for yourself? Do not seek them; for behold, I am going to (C2)bring disaster on all flesh,' declares the LORD, 'but I will (C3)give your life to you as plunder in all the places where you may go.'"
