1Yo, this is what Jeremiah the prophet told Baruch, son of Neriah, when he was writing these words down, back in the 4th year of Jehoiakim, king of Judah. No cap.

2The Lord, the God of Israel, is like, "Listen up, Baruch."

3You were like, "Bruh, this is rough! The Lord's adding mad stress to my vibes; I’m just out here gasping for air, no chill."

4So, you gotta tell him this: The Lord's saying, "Check it, I’m about to tear down what I built and uproot what I planted, even this whole land."

5You chasing after big dreams for yourself? Nah fam, don’t do it. The Lord’s bringing some serious drama on everyone, but I got your back; your life’s safe wherever you roll.

1The 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,

2Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel, unto thee, O Baruch;

3Thou 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.

4Thus 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.

5And 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.
