Jeremiah 45:3-5
Christian Standard Bible
3 ‘You have said, “Woe is me, because the Lord has added misery to my pain! I am worn out with[a] groaning and have found no rest.”’(A)
4 “This is what you are to say to him: ‘This is what the Lord says: “What I have built I am about to demolish, and what I have planted I am about to uproot(B)—the whole land! 5 But as for you, do you pursue great things for yourself? Stop pursuing! For I am about to bring disaster on all humanity”—this is the Lord’s declaration—“but I will grant you your life like the spoils of war(C) wherever you go.”’”
