* The word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch the son of Neriah , when he had written these words in a book at the instruction of Jeremiah , in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah , king of Judah , saying , * "Thus says the LORD , the God of Israel , to you , O Baruch : * "You said , "Woe is me now ! For the LORD has added grief to my sorrow . I fainted in my sighing , and I find no rest ."' * "Thus you shall say to him , "Thus says the LORD : "Behold , what I have built I will break down , and what I have planted I will pluck up , that is , this whole land . * And do you seek great things for yourself ? Do not seek them ; for behold , I will bring adversity on all flesh ," says the LORD . "But I will give your life to you as a prize in all places , wherever you go .""'
