This is the word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch son of Neriah when he wrote these words on a scroll at the dictation of Jeremiah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, king of Judah:

2 thus to say LORD God Israel upon you Baruch

“This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says to you, Baruch:

3 to say woe! please to/for me for to add LORD sorrow upon pain my be weary/toil in/on/with sighing my and resting not to find

You have said, ‘Woe is me because the LORD has added sorrow to my pain! I am worn out with groaning and have found no rest.’”

4 thus to say to(wards) him thus to say LORD behold which to build I to overthrow and [obj] which to plant I to uproot and [obj] all [the] land: country/planet he/she/it

Thus Jeremiah was to say to Baruch: “This is what the LORD says: Throughout the land I will demolish what I have built and uproot what I have planted.

5 and you(m. s.) to seek to/for you great: large not to seek for look! I to come (in): bring distress: harm upon all flesh utterance LORD and to give: give to/for you [obj] soul: life your to/for spoil upon all [the] place which to go: went there

But as for you, do you seek great things for yourself? Stop seeking! For I will bring disaster on every living creature, declares the LORD, but wherever you go, I will grant your life as a spoil of war.”
