Jeremiah

God's promise to Baruch.  Jr.45.1-5

¹The word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch the son of Neriah, when he wrote these words in a book at the dictation of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah: ²"Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, to you, O Baruch: ³You said, 'Woe is me! for Yahweh has added sorrow to my pain; I am weary with my groaning, and I find no rest.' ⁴Thus shall you say to him, Thus says Yahweh: Behold, what I have built I am breaking down, and what I have planted I am plucking up - that is, the whole land. ⁵And do you seek great things for yourself? Seek them not; for, behold, I am bringing evil upon all flesh, says Yahweh; but I will give you your life as a prize of war in all places to which you may go."

This page displays the katapi New Standard Bible as flowing text.
The katapi New Standard Bible is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.
