Liber Ieremiae

Ieremiae, chapter 45, Vulgate and King James Version

Chapter 45 Vulgate

   1 Verbum, quod locutus est Ieremias propheta ad Baruch filium Neriae, cum scriberet verba haec in libro ex ore Ieremiae, anno quarto Ioachim filii Iosiae regis Iudae, dicens:
   2 "Haec dicit Dominus, Deus Israel, super te, Baruch.
   3 Dixisti: "Vae misero mihi, quoniam addidit Dominus dolorem maerori meo; laboravi in gemitu meo et requiem non inveni".
   4 Haec dices ad eum: Sic dicit Dominus: Ecce, quod aedificavi, ego destruo et, quod plantavi, ego evello, universam terram hanc;
   5 et tu quaeris tibi grandia? Noli quaerere, quia ecce ego adducam malum super omnem carnem, ait Dominus, et dabo tibi animam tuam quasi spolium in omnibus locis, ad quaecumque perrexeris".

King James Version

   1 The word that Jeremiah the prophet spake unto Baruch the son of Neriah, when he had written these words in a book at the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, saying,
   2 Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, unto thee, O Baruch;
   3 Thou didst say, Woe is me now! for the LORD hath added grief to my sorrow; I fainted in my sighing, and I find no rest.
   4 ¶ Thus shalt thou say unto him, The LORD saith thus; Behold, that which I have built will I break down, and that which I have planted I will pluck up, even this whole land.
   5 And seekest thou great things for thyself? seek them not: for, behold, I will bring evil upon all flesh, saith the LORD: but thy life will I give unto thee for a prey in all places whither thou goest.
