Chapter 45
Jere ABP 45:1  The word which [4spoke 1Jeremiah 2the 3prophet] to Baruch son of Neriah, when he wrote these words in the scroll from the mouth of Jeremiah, in the [2year 1fourth] of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, saying,
Jere ABP 45:2  Thus said the lord the God of Israel, concerning you, O Baruch.
Jere ABP 45:3  For you said, Alas, for the lord added toil upon my misery. I went to bed in my moanings, [3rest 1I did not 2find].
Jere ABP 45:4  You said to him! Thus said the lord, Behold, What I built up I demolish, and what I planted I pluck, even all the land of mine.
Jere ABP 45:5  And you seek to yourself great things. You should not seek. For behold, I bring bad things upon all flesh, says the lord. But I will give to you your life for gain in every place wherever you should proceed there.
