Jeremiah 45:1-5 CSB

[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 all humanity"-this is the LORD's declaration-"but I will grant you your life like the spoils of war wherever you go."'"
