Jeremiah chapter 45
English Standard Version
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
"Thus says the
Lord
, the God of Israel, to you, O Baruch:
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
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
And do you seek great things for yourself? Seek them not, for behold, I am bringing disaster upon all flesh, declares the
Lord
. But I will give you your life as a prize of war in all places to which you may go."
New International Version
1
When Baruch son of Neriah wrote on a scroll the words Jeremiah the prophet dictated in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, Jeremiah said this to Baruch:
2
"This is what the
Lord
, the God of Israel, says to you, Baruch:
3
You said, ‘Woe to me! The
Lord
has added sorrow to my pain; I am worn out with groaning and find no rest.’
4
But the
Lord
has told me to say to you, ‘This is what the
Lord
says: I will overthrow what I have built and uproot what I have planted, throughout the earth.
5
Should you then seek great things for yourself? Do not seek them. For I will bring disaster on all people, declares the
Lord
, but wherever you go I will let you escape with your life.’ "
New American Standard Bible

This is
the message which Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch the son of Neriah, when he had written these words in a book at Jeremiah’s dictation, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, saying:
2
This is what the
Lord
, the God of Israel says to you, Baruch:
3
‘You said, 'Oh, woe to me! For the
Lord
has added grief to my pain; I am weary with my groaning and have found no rest.'?’
4
This is what you are to say to him: ‘This is what the
Lord
says: 'Behold, what I have built I am going to tear down, and what I have planted I am going to uproot, that is, all
the people of
the land.'
5
But as for you, are you seeking great things for yourself? Do not seek
them;
for behold, I am going to bring disaster on all flesh,’ declares the
Lord
, ‘but I will give your life to you as plunder in all the places where you may go.’?'
Christian Standard Bible
1
This is the word that the prophet Jeremiah spoke to Baruch son of Neriah when he wrote these words on a scroll at Jeremiah’s dictation in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, king of Judah:
2
"This is what the
Lord
, the God of Israel, says to you, Baruch:
3
‘You have said, "Woe is me, because the
Lord
has added misery to my pain! I am worn out with groaning and have found no rest."’
4
"This is what you are to say to him: ‘This is what the
Lord
says: "What I have built I am about to demolish, and what I have planted I am about to uproot —the whole land!
5
But as for you, do you pursue great things for yourself? Stop pursuing! For I am about to bring disaster on everyone"—this is the
Lord
’s declaration—"but I will grant you your life like the spoils of war wherever you go."’"
New Living Translation
1
The prophet Jeremiah gave a message to Baruch son of Neriah in the fourth year of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, 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!’'
King James Version
1
The word that Jeremiah the prophet spake unto Baruch the son of Neriah, when he had written these words in a book at the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, saying,
2
Thus saith the
Lord
, the God of Israel, unto thee, O Baruch;
3
Thou didst say, Woe is me now! for the
Lord
hath added grief to my sorrow; I fainted in my sighing, and I find no rest.
4
Thus shalt thou say unto him, The
Lord
saith thus; Behold, that which I have built will I break down, and that which I have planted I will pluck up, even this whole land.
5
And seekest thou great things for thyself? seek them not: for, behold, I will bring evil upon all flesh, saith the
Lord
: but thy life will I give unto thee for a prey in all places whither thou goest.
