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:1 The word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch, the son of Neriah, when he had written these words in a book, from the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, saying:
2 “ Haec dicit Dominus, Deus Israel, super te, Baruch.2 “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, to you, Baruch:
3 Dixisti: “Vae misero mihi, quoniam addidit Dominus dolorem maerori meo;laboravi in gemitu meo et requiem non inveni”.3 You have said: ‘Woe to me, a wretched man! For the Lord has added sorrow to my sorrow. I have labored in my groaning, and I have not found rest.’
4 Haec dices ad eum: Sic dicitDominus: Ecce, quod aedificavi, ego destruo et, quod plantavi, ego evello,universam terram hanc;4 Thus says the Lord: So shall you say to him: Behold, those whom I have built up, I destroy, and those whom I have planted, I uproot, even this entire land.
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 ”.
5 And are you seeking great things for yourself? Do not choose to seek them. For behold, I will lead evil over all that is flesh, says the Lord. But I will give your life to you unto salvation, in every place, wherever you may travel.”
