JER-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,

JER-45:2 Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, unto thee, O

Baruch;

JER-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.

JER-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.

JER-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.
