1 犹大王约西亚的儿子约雅敬第四年,尼利亚的儿子巴录将先知耶利米中所上。耶利米

2 巴录啊,耶和华以色列的

3 巴录(原文是你)曾:哀哉!耶和华将忧愁加在我的痛苦上,我因唉哼而困乏,不得安歇。

4 你要这样告诉他,耶和华如此:我所建立的,我必拆毁;我所栽植的,我必拔出;在全我都如此行。

5 你为自己图谋事麽?不要图谋!我必使灾祸临到凡有血气的。但你无论往哪里去,我必使你以自己的命为掠物。这是耶和华的。

   

Commentary

 

Jehoiakim

  

'Jehoiakim,' as in Jeremiah 36:30, after he had burnt the scroll written by Jeremiah, it is said, 'that his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost,' which signifies that the truths of the church would perish by lust for falsity. This king represents the truth of the church about to perish. The scroll which he burnt signifies the Word, which is said to be 'burnt' when it is falsified and adulterated.
