Isahluko 45

Izwi uJeremiya, umprofethi, alikhuluma kuBaruki, indodana kaNeriya, ekulobeni kwakhe lawa mazwi encwadini, ewathatha emlonyeni kaJeremiya, ngomnyaka wesine kaJehoyakimi, indodana kaJosiya, inkosi yakwaJuda, lokuthi:
2 “Usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli kuwe Baruki:
3 Uthi wena: ‘Maye kimina! Ngokuba uJehova wenezele usizi ebuhlungwini bami, ngikhathele ukukhala, nokuthula angikufumani.’
4 “Uyakusho kanje kuye, uthi: ‘Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: Bheka, lokho engikwakhileyo ngiyakukudiliza, nalokhu engikutshalileyo ngiyakukusiphula, yebo, ezweni lonke.
5 Uyazifunela izinto ezinkulu na? Ungazifuni, ngokuba bheka, ngiyakwehlisela inyama yonke okubi, usho uJehova, ngikunike ukuphila kwakho kube yimpango ezindaweni zonke lapho uya khona.’ ”
