The word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch the son of Neri'ah, when he wrote these words in a book at the dictation of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoi'akim the son of Josi'ah, king of Judah:
|
| 45:2 |
'Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, to you, O Baruch:
|
| 45:3 |
You said, Woe is me! for the LORD has added sorrow to my pain;I am weary with my groaning, and I find no rest.'
|
| 45:4 |
Thus shall you say to him, Thus says the LORD: Behold, what I have built I am breaking down, and what I have planted I am plucking up -- that is, the whole land.
|
| 45:5 |
And do you seek great things for yourself? Seek them not;for, behold, I am bringing evil upon all flesh, says the LORD;but I will give you your life as a prize of war in all places to which you may go.'
