Jeremiah Chapter 45 Back Next{45:1} The message that
Jeremiah the prophet spoke to
Baruch the son of Neriah, when he wrote 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 says Yahweh, the God of
Israel, to you, Baruch:
{45:3} You said, Woe is me now! for Yahweh has added sorrow to my pain; I am weary with my groaning, and I find no rest.
{45:4} You shall tell him, Thus says Yahweh: Behold, that which I have built will I break down, and that which I have planted I will pluck up; and this in the whole land.
{45:5} Do you seek great things for yourself? Don't seek them; for, behold, I will bring evil on all
flesh, says Yahweh; but your life will I give to you for a prey in all places where you go.
