Jeremiah
Jeremiah, 45
1 The word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Barʹuch the son of Ne·riʹah when he wrote in a book these words from the mouth of Jeremiah in the fourth year of Je·hoiʹa·kim the son of Jo·siʹah, the king of Judah, saying:
2 “This is what Jehovah the God of Israel has said concerning you, O Barʹuch,
3 ‘You have said: “Woe, now, to me, for Jehovah has added grief to my pain! I have grown weary because of my sighing, and no resting-place have I found.”’
4 “This is what you should say to him, ‘This is what Jehovah has said: “Look! What I have built up I am tearing down, and what I have planted I am uprooting, even all the land itself.
5 But as for you, you keep seeking great things for yourself. Do not keep on seeking.”’ “‘For here I am bringing in a calamity upon all flesh,’ is the utterance of Jehovah, ‘and I will give you your soul as a spoil in all the places to which you may go.’”
