1 The word 1697 that Jeremiah 3414 the prophet 5030 spake 1696 unto Baruch 1263 the son 1121 of Neriah 5374, when he had written 3789 these words 1697 in a book 5612 at the mouth 6310 of Jeremiah 3414, in the fourth 7243 year 8141 of Jehoiakim 3079 the son 1121 of Josiah 2977 king 4428 of Judah 3063, saying 559,
2 Thus saith 559 the LORD 3068, the God 430 of Israel 3478, unto thee, O Baruch 1263;
3 Thou didst say 559, Woe 188 is me now! for the LORD 3068 hath added 3254 grief 3015 to my sorrow 4341; I fainted 3021 in my sighing 585, and I find 4672 no rest 4496.
4 Thus shalt thou say 559 unto him, The LORD 3068 saith 559 thus; Behold, that which I have built 1129 will I break down 2040, and that which I have planted 5193 I will pluck up 5428, even this whole land 776.
5 And seekest 1245 thou great things 1419 for thyself? seek 1245 them not: for, behold, I will bring 935 evil 7451 upon all flesh 1320, saith 5002 the LORD 3068: but thy life 5315 will I give 5414 unto thee for a prey 7998 in all places 4725 whither thou goest 3212.
