1Izwi uJeremiya umprofethi alikhuluma kuBaruki indodana kaNeriya ekulobeni kwakhe lawamazwi encwadini, ewathatha emlonyeni kaJeremiya, ngomnyaka wesine kaJehoyakimi indodana kaJosiya, inkosi yakwaJuda, lokuthi:
2Usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli kuwe-Baruki:
3Uthi wena: Maye kimina! Ngokuba uJehova wenezele usizi ebuhlungwini bami, ngikhathele ukukhala, nokuthula angikufumani.
4Uyakusho kanje kuye, uthi: Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: Bheka, lokho engikwakhileyo ngiyakukudiliza, nalokhu engikutshalileyo ngiyakukusiphula, yebo, ezweni lonke.
5Uyazifunela izinto ezinkulu na? Ungazifuni, ngokuba bheka, ngiyakwehlisela inyama yonke okubi, usho uJehova, ngikunike ukuphila kwakho kube-yimpango ezindaweni zonke lapho uya khona.
