Jeremias 45

1 Daytoy ti sao nga imbaga ni Jeremias a profeta kenni Baruc a putot ni Nerias. Napasamak daytoy idi insurat ni Baruc dagitoy a sasao iti maysa a nalukot a pagsuratan bayat nga idikdikta ni Jeremias—daytoy ket idi maika-uppat a tawen a panagturay ni Jehoiakim a putot ni Josias kas ari ti Juda, a kunana,

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

2 “Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel kenka, Baruc:

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

3 Kinunam, 'Asiak pay, ta ninayunan ni Yahweh ti panagrigrigatko. Nabannogakon gapu iti panagas-asugko; awan iti inanak.'

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 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.

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

5 Ngem mangnamnamaka kadi iti nasasayaat a banbanag para iti bagim? Saanmo a namnamaen dayta. Ta dumngegka, um-umayen ti didigra iti amin a sangkataoan—daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh—ngem itedko kenka ti biagmo a kas banag a sinamsammo iti sadinoman a papanam.”'

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 unto thee for a prey in all places whither thou goest.
