< Jeremiah 45 >

1 The word that Jeremiah the prophet has spoken to Baruch son of Neriah, in his writing these words on a scroll from the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim 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 said YHWH, God of Israel, concerning you, O Baruch:
“Pa inge kas lun LEUM GOD lun Israel nu sum: ‘Baruch,
3 You have said, Woe to me, now, for YHWH has added sorrow to my pain, I have been wearied with my sighing, and I have not found 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 you say to him, Thus said YHWH: Behold, that which I have built I am throwing down, and that which I have planted I am plucking up, even the whole land itself.
“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 you seek for great things—do not seek, for behold, I am bringing calamity on all flesh—a declaration of YHWH—and I have given your life to you for a spoil, in all places to where you 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.”
