I am worn out with  # 45:3 Lit I laboured in my groaning and have found no rest.’ ”  # 45:3 Ps 6:6
4‘This is what you are to say to him: “This is what the Lord says: ‘What I have built I am about to demolish, and what I have planted I am about to uproot  # 45:4 Jr 24:6  #– #the whole land! 5But as for you, do you pursue great things for yourself? Stop pursuing! For I am about to bring disaster on all humanity’ #– #this is the Lord’s declaration #– #‘but I will grant you your life like the spoils of war  # 45:5 Jr 21:9; 38:2; 39:18 wherever you go.’ ” ’
