New Century Version NCV
The Latin Vulgate VUL
1 It was the fourth year that Jehoiakim son of Josiah was king of Judah. Jeremiah the prophet told these things to Baruch son of Neriah, and Baruch wrote them on a scroll:
1
verbum quod locutus est Hieremias propheta ad Baruch filium Neri cum scripsisset verba haec in libro de ore Hieremiae anno quarto Ioachim filii Iosiae regis Iuda dicens
2 "This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says to you, Baruch:
2
haec dicit Dominus Deus Israhel ad te Baruch
3 You have said, 'How terrible it is for me! The Lord has given me sorrow along with my pain. I am tired because of my suffering and cannot rest.'"
3
dixisti vae misero mihi quoniam addidit Dominus dolorem dolori meo laboravi in gemitu meo et requiem non inveni
4 The Lord said, "Say this to Baruch: 'This is what the Lord says: I will soon tear down what I have built, and I will pull up what I have planted everywhere in Judah.
4
haec dices ad eum sic dicit Dominus ecce quos aedificavi ego destruo et quos plantavi ego evello et universam terram hanc
5 Baruch, you are looking for great things for yourself. Don't look for them, because I will bring disaster on all the people, says the Lord. You will have to go many places, but I will let you escape alive wherever you go.'"
5
et tu quaeris tibi grandia noli quaerere quia ecce ego adducam malum super omnem carnem ait Dominus et dabo tibi animam tuam in salutem in omnibus locis ad quaecumque perrexeris
