The word that Jeremiah the prophet spake 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 ,
*
Thus saith the LORD ,
the God of Israel Yisra #
el #,
unto thee ,
O Baruch ;
*
Thou didst say ,
Woe is me now !
for the LORD hath added grief to my sorrow mak #
ob #;
I fainted in my sighing ,
and I find no rest .
*
Thus shalt thou say unto him ,
The LORD saith thus ;
Behold ,
that which I have built will I break down ,
and that which I have planted I will pluck up ,
even this whole land .
*
And seekest thou great things for thyself ?
seek them not :
for ,
behold ,
I will bring evil upon all flesh ,
saith the LORD :
but thy life will I give unto thee for a prey in all places whither thou goest .
