Jeremiah 45

1 THE word that Jeremiah the prophet spake unto Baruch the son of Neriah, when he had written these words in a book at the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, saying,

In yac se akakosr ma Jehoiakim, wen natul Josiah, el tuh tokosra lun Judah, Baruch el simusla kas nukewa nga fahkang nu sel. Na nga fahk nu sel,

2 Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel, unto thee, O Baruch;

“Pa inge kas lun LEUM GOD lun Israel nu sum: ‘Baruch,

3 Thou didst say, Woe is me now! for the Lord hath added grief to my sorrow; I fainted in my sighing, and I find no rest.

kom fahk mu “Nga fuhleak finsrak! LEUM GOD El ase mwe asor in laesla mwe lokoalok luk. Nga totola ke sao luk, ac nga tia ku in konauk mongla!’”

4 Thus shalt thou say unto him, The Lord saith thus; Behold, that which I have built will I break down, and that which I have planted I will pluck up, even this whole land.

“Tusruktu nga, LEUM GOD, nga ikruiya ma nga musaela, ac nga fusak ma nga yukwiya. Nga ac oru ouinge nu ke faclu nufon.

5 And seekest thou great things for thyself? seek them not: for, behold, I will bring evil upon all flesh, saith the Lord: but thy life will I give unto thee for a prey in all places whither thou goest.

Ya kom suk in orek nu sum wo liki mwet ngia? Nimet nunku ouingan. Nga ac sang mwe ongoiya nu fin mwet nukewa, tusruktu kom sifacna ac fah moulla in kutena acn kom ac som nu we. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
