Jeremiah 45:2-4

The Voice

Jeremiah (to Baruch): ² The Eternal, the God of Israel, has given me a message for you, Baruch. ³ He heard you when you cried out, “Oh my, what pain I am in! As if I weren’t hurting enough, the Eternal has piled on even more sorrow. I am so tired from groaning; I can find no rest.” ⁴ And so the Eternal has given me this message for you: “Hear Me, Baruch, for I tell you I am about to upend what I have built and uproot what I have planted in this land, in the whole land.
