예레미야 45장 [RSV]

1. 1 The word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch the son of Neriah, when he wrote these words in a book at the dictation of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah:

2. 2 "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, to you, O Baruch:

3. 3 You said, `Woe is me! for the LORD has added sorrow to my pain; I am weary with my groaning, and I find no rest.

4. 4 Thus shall you say to him, Thus says the LORD: Behold, what I have built I am breaking down, and what I have planted I am plucking up -- that is, the whole land.

5. 5 And do you seek great things for yourself? Seek them not; for, behold, I am bringing evil upon all flesh, says the LORD; but I will give you your life as a prize of war in all places to which you may go."
