Chapter
45
- 45:1
- 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,
- 45:2
- Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, unto thee, O Baruch:
- 45:3
- 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.
- 45:4
- 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.
- 45:5
- 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.
