Jeremias 45
|
The words which Jeremiah the prophet said to Baruch, the son of Neriah, when he put these words down in a book from the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah; he said, | A palavra que Jeremias, o profeta, falou a Banique, filho de Nerias, quando este escrevia num livro as palavras ditadas por Jeremias, no quarto ano de Jeoiaquim, filho de Josias, rei de Judá: |
This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, has said of you, O Baruch: | Assim diz o Senhor, Deus de Israel, acerca de ti ó Baruque. |
You said, Sorrow is mine! for the Lord has given me sorrow in addition to my pain; I am tired with the sound of my sorrow, and I get no rest. | Disseste: Ai de mim agora! porque me acrescentou o Senhor tristeza à minha dor; estou cansado do meu gemer, e não acho descanso. |
This is what you are to say to him: The Lord has said, Truly, the building which I put up will be broken down, and that which was planted by me will be uprooted, and this through all the land; | Isto lhe dirás: Assim diz o Senhor: Eis que estou a demolir o que edifiquei, e a arrancar o que plantei, e isso em toda esta terra. |
And as for you, are you looking for great things for yourself? Have no desire for them: for truly I will send evil on all flesh, says the Lord: but your life I will keep safe from attack wherever you go. | E procuras tu grandezas para ti mesmo? Não as busques; pois eis que estou trazendo o mal sobre toda a raça, diz o Senhor; porém te darei a tua vida por despojo, em todos os lugares para onde fores. |
