Jeremiah 45
1¶ The word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke 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,
2Thus hath the Lord, the God of Israel said unto thee, O Baruch:
3Thou didst say, Woe is me now! for the Lord has added grief to my sorrow; I fainted in my sighing, and I have found no rest.
4Thus shalt thou say unto him, The Lord said thus: Behold, I destroy those whom I have built up and those whom I have planted I pluck up, even this whole land.
5And dost thou seek great things for thyself? seek them not; for, behold, I bring evil upon all flesh, said the Lord: but I will give thee thy life as a spoil of battle in all places where thou goest.

45
The Lord’s Promise to the Scribe Baruch
1This is the message that the prophet Jeremiah spoke to Baruch, son of Neriah. Baruch wrote these things on a scroll as Jeremiah dictated them during the fourth year that Jehoiakim, son of Josiah, was king of Judah. Jeremiah said, 2“This is what the Lord God of Israel says to you, Baruch: 3You said, ‘I’m so miserable! The Lord has added grief to my pain. I’m worn out from groaning. I can’t find any rest.’
4“Say this to Baruch, ‘This is what the Lord says: I will tear down what I have built. I will uproot what I have planted throughout the earth. 5Are you looking for great things for yourself? Don’t look for them, because I’m going to bring disaster on all people, declares the Lord. But wherever you go I will let you escape with your life.’ ”
