Ang Pulong Sang Dios

Jeremias 45:1-5

Ang Mensahi kay Baruc

1Sang ikaapat nga tuig sang paghari ni Jehoyakim nga anak ni Josia sa Juda, ginsulat ni Baruc ang gindikta sa iya ni Propeta Jeremias. 2Siling ni Jeremias, “Baruc, amo ini ang ginasiling sang Ginoo, ang Dios sang Israel, sa imo: 3‘Nagsiling ka nga kaluluoy ka, kay ginadugangan sang Ginoo ang imo kasakit. Ginakapoy ka na sa pag-ugayong kag wala sing kapahuwayan.’

4“Baruc, nagasiling pa gid ang Ginoo, ‘Gub-on ko ang ini nga nasyon nga akon ginpatindog. Gabuton ko ang akon gintanom. Himuon ko ini sa bug-os nga duta. 5Ti, magahandom ka pa sang dalagko nga mga butang para sa imo kaugalingon? Indi na lang, kay padal-an ko sang kalaglagan ang tanan nga katawhan, pero ikaw iya luwason ko bisan diin ka makadto. Ako, ang Ginoo, ang nagasiling sini.’ ”

Jeremiah 45:1-5

The Lord Speaks to Baruch

1Jeremiah talked to Baruch, the son of Neriah. It was in the fourth year that Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, was king of Judah. It was when Baruch had written down on a scroll the words Jeremiah the prophet told him to write. Jeremiah had said, 2“The Lord is the God of Israel. Baruch, he says to you, 3‘You have said, “How terrible it is for me! The Lord has added sorrow to my pain. I’m worn out from all my groaning. I can’t find any rest.” ’ 4But here is what the Lord has told me to say to you, Baruch. ‘The Lord says, “I will destroy what I have built up. I will pull up by the roots what I have planted. I will do this throughout the earth. 5So should you seek great things for yourself? Do not seek them. I will bring trouble on everyone,” announces the Lord. “But no matter where you go, I will let you escape with your life.” ’ ”
