Jeremiah 45

1 The word that Jeremias the prophet spoke to Baruch the son of Nerias, when he had written there words in a book, out of the mouth of Jeremias, in the fourth year of Joakim the son of Josias king of Juda, saying:

Šis ir tas vārds, ko pravietis Jeremija runājis uz Bāruku, Nerijas dēlu, kad viņš šos vārdus no Jeremijas mutes rakstīja grāmatā, Jojaķima, Josijas dēla, Jūda ķēniņa, ceturtā gadā, sacīdams:

2 Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel to thee, Baruch:

Tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs, uz tevi, Bāruk:

3 Thou hast said: Woe is me, wretch that I am, for the Lord hath added sorrow to my sorrow: I am wearied with my groans, and I find no rest.

Tu saki: vai man! Jo Tas Kungs bēdas pielicis manām sāpēm; es esmu piekusis no savas vaidēšanas un neatrodu miera.

4 Thus saith the Lord: Thus shalt thou say to him: Behold, them whom I have built, I do destroy: and them whom I have planted, I do pluck up, and all this land.

Tā tev būs sacīt uz viņu: tā saka Tas Kungs: redzi, ko Es esmu uztaisījis, to Es nolaužu, un ko esmu dēstījis, to Es izrauju, un tā klāsies visai šai zemei.

5 And dost thou seek great things for thyself? Seek not: for behold I will bring evil upon all flesh, saith the Lord! but I will give thee thy life, and save thee in all places whithersoever thou shalt go.

Un tu sev meklē lielas lietas? Nemeklē tās! Jo redzi, Es vedu ļaunumu pār visu miesu, saka Tas Kungs. Bet tev Es došu paturēt tavu dvēseli visur, kur vien tu iesi.
