2 'This is what Yahweh God of Israel says about you, Baruch!2 “ Haec dicit Dominus, Deus Israel, super te, Baruch.
3 "You have been thinking: what disaster for me, and Yahweh has added further grief to my troubles! Iam worn out with groaning, and find no relief!"3 Dixisti: “Vae misero mihi, quoniam addidit Dominus dolorem maerori meo;laboravi in gemitu meo et requiem non inveni”.
4 Say to him as fol ows, "Yahweh says this: Now I am knocking down what I have built, am uprootingwhat I have planted, over the whole country!4 Haec dices ad eum: Sic dicitDominus: Ecce, quod aedificavi, ego destruo et, quod plantavi, ego evello,universam terram hanc;
5 And you ask for special treatment! Do not ask, for I am now going to bring disaster on al humanity,Yahweh declares, but you I shal al ow to escape with your life, wherever you may go." '5 et tu quaeris tibi grandia? Noli quaerere, quia ecceego adducam malum super omnem carnem, ait Dominus, et dabo tibi animam tuamquasi spolium in omnibus locis, ad quaecumque perrexeris ”.
