“The LORD, the God of Israel, says to you, Baruch:

4 Kastoy ti rumbeng nga ibagam kenkuana: 'Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh: Kitaem, rebrebbaek itan ti imbangonko. Parparutek itan ti inmulak. Mapasamak daytoy iti entero a daga.

“You shall tell him, the LORD says: ‘Behold, that which I have built, I will break down, and that which I have planted I will pluck up; and this in the whole land.

Do you seek great things for yourself? Do not seek them; for, behold, I will bring evil on all flesh,’ says the LORD, ‘but I will let you escape with your life wherever you go.’”
