Jeremiah 45:3-5

Living Bible

³ You have said, Woe is me! Don’t I have troubles enough already? And now the Lord has added more! I am weary of my own sighing and I find no rest. ⁴ But tell Baruch this, The Lord says: I will destroy this nation that I built; I will wipe out what I established. ⁵ Are you seeking great things for yourself? Don’t do it! For though I will bring great evil upon all these people, I will protect you wherever you go, as your reward.
