Jeremiah 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 * ,
2. Thus saith * the LORD, the God of Israel, unto thee, O Baruch;
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.
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.
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 * .
