Jeremiah 45

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	NOVA VULGATA
1 This is the message that the prophet Jeremiah gave to Baruch, son of Neriah, when he wrote in a book the prophecies that Jeremiah dictated in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, son of Josiah, king of Judah:	1 Verbum, quod locutus est Ieremias propheta ad Baruch filium Neriae, cumscriberet verba haec in libro ex ore Ieremiae, anno quarto Ioachim filii Iosiaeregis Iudae, dicens:
2 Thus says the LORD, God of Israel, to you, Baruch,	2 “ Haec dicit Dominus, Deus Israel, super te, Baruch.
3 because you said, "Alas! the LORD adds grief to my pain; I am weary from groaning, and can find no rest":	3 Dixisti: “Vae misero mihi, quoniam addidit Dominus dolorem maerori meo;laboravi in gemitu meo et requiem non inveni”.
4 say this to him, says the LORD: What I have built, I am tearing down; what I have planted, I am uprooting: even the whole land.	4 Haec dices ad eum: Sic dicitDominus: Ecce, quod aedificavi, ego destruo et, quod plantavi, ego evello,universam terram hanc;
5 And do you seek great things for yourself? Seek them not! I am bringing evil on all mankind, says the LORD, but your life I will leave you as booty, 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 ”.
