1 The word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch son of Neriah, in his writing these words upon a scroll from the mouth of Jeremiah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, saying: The word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch the son of Neriah, when he wrote these words in a book at the dictation of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah: When Baruch son of Neriah wrote on a scroll the words Jeremiah the prophet dictated in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, Jeremiah said this to Baruch:
2 “Thus says YHWH, the God of Israel, to you, O Baruch: “Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, to you, O Baruch: “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says to you, Baruch:
3 You have said, ‘Woe now to me! For YHWH has added sorrow to my pain! I grow weary in my sighing, I do not find rest.’” You said, ‘Woe is me! For the LORD has added sorrow to my pain. I am weary with my groaning, and I find no rest.’ You said, ‘Woe to me! The LORD has added sorrow to my pain; I am worn out with groaning and find no rest.’
4 Thus you will say to him, “Thus says YHWH: Behold, what I have built I am breaking down, and what I have planted I am plucking up—even all the land itself. Thus shall you say to him, Thus says the LORD: Behold, what I have built I am breaking down, and what I have planted I am plucking up—that is, the whole land. But the LORD has told me to say to you, ‘This is what the LORD says: I will overthrow what I have built and uproot what I have planted, throughout the earth.
5 And do you seek for yourself great things? Do not seek them. For behold, I am going to bring disaster upon all flesh, a declaration of YHWH, and I will give to you your soul as a prize, in all the places to which you go there.” And do you seek great things for yourself? Seek them not, for behold, I am bringing disaster upon all flesh, declares the LORD. But I will give you your life as a prize of war in all places to which you may go.” Should you then seek great things for yourself? Do not seek them. For I will bring disaster on all people, declares the LORD, but wherever you go I will let you escape with your life.’”
