Jeremiah 45

1 The word which Jeremiah the prophet spoke unto Baruch the son of Neriyah, when he wrote these words in a book out of the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoyakim the son of Josiah the 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 hath said the Lord, the God of Israel, concerning 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 pain; I am wearied in my sighing, and rest have I not found;

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, Thus hath the Lord said, Behold, what I have built will I pull down, and what I have planted I will pluck up; and so it is with 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 wouldst thou indeed seek great things for thyself? seek them not; for, behold, I will bring evil upon all flesh, saith the Lord; but I will give thy life unto thee as a booty in all the places whither thou mayest go.

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.”
