The prophet Jeremiah gave a message to Baruch son of Neriah in the fourth year of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah,[122] after Baruch had written down everything Jeremiah had dictated to him. He said,
2
“This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says to you, Baruch:
3
You have said, ‘I am overwhelmed with trouble! Haven’t I had enough pain already? And now the LORD has added more! I am worn out from sighing and can find no rest.’
4
“Baruch, this is what the LORD says: ‘I will destroy this nation that I built. I will uproot what I planted.
5
Are you seeking great things for yourself? Don’t do it! I will bring great disaster upon all these people; but I will give you your life as a reward wherever you go. I, the LORD, have spoken!’”
