1The message that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch the son of Neriah, when he wrote these words in a book at the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, saying,
1Ko e lea naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe Selemaia, ko e palōfita, kia Paluki ko e foha ʻo Nelia, ʻi he hili ʻene tohi ʻi ha tohi ʻae ngaahi lea ni mei he ngutu ʻo Selemaia, ʻi hono fā ʻoe taʻu ʻo Sihoiakimi ko e foha ʻo Siosaia, ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻo pehē.
2“The LORD, the God of Israel, says to you, Baruch:
2“ʻE Paluki, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, kiate koe;
3‘You said, “Woe is me now! For the LORD has added sorrow to my pain! I am weary with my groaning, and I find no rest.”’
3‘Naʻa ke pehē, “Ko eni ʻoku ou malaʻia! He kuo fakahoko ʻe Sihova ʻae mamahi ki heʻeku mamahi; naʻaku pongia ʻi heʻeku toʻe, pea ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo ha fiemālie.”’
4“You shall tell him, the LORD says: ‘Behold, that which I have built, I will break down, and that which I have planted I will pluck up; and this in the whole land.
4¶ “Pea te ke lea pehē kiate ia, ʻoku folofola pehē ʻa Sihova; ‘Vakai, ko ia kuo u langa te u fesiʻi hifo, pea ko ia kuo u tō te u taʻaki hake, ʻio, ʻae fonua ni kotoa pē.
5Do you seek great things for yourself? Don’t seek them; for, behold, I will bring evil on all flesh,’ says the LORD, ‘but I will let you escape with your life wherever you go.’”
5Pea ʻoku ke kumi ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi maʻau? ʻOua naʻa kumi ki ai:’ he ʻoku pehē mai ʻe Sihova, ‘Vakai, te u ʻomi ʻae kovi ki he kakano kotoa pē: ka te u foaki hoʻo moʻui kiate koe ʻo hangē ko e koloa kuo vetea, ʻi he potu kotoa pē te ke ʻalu ki ai.’”
