Jeremiah 45

1 The word which he spoke Jeremiah the prophet to Baruch [the] son of Neriah when wrote he the words these on a scroll from [the] mouth of Jeremiah in the year fourth of Jehoiakim [the] son of Josiah [the] king of Judah saying.

The word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch the son of Neriah, when he had written these words in a book from the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, saying,

2 Thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel to you O Baruch.

Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, to thee, O Baruch;

3 You said woe! please to me for he has added Yahweh sorrow to pain my I am weary with groaning my and rest not I have found.

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.

4 Thus - you will say to him thus he says Yahweh here! [that] which I have built I [am] about to tear down and [that] which I have planted I [am] about to pluck up and all the land it.

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

5 And you you are seeking for yourself great [things] may not you seek [them] for here I [am] about to bring calamity on all flesh [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will give to you life your to plunder at all the places where you will go there.

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 to thee for a prize in all places where thou goest.
