Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, saying,
(a) Who was Jeremiah's disciple, and wrote his prophecies
under him.

45:3 Thou didst say, Woe is me now! for the LORD hath added
grief to my sorrow; I {c} fainted in my sighing, and I find
no rest.

imprisonment, but chiefly for the destruction of the
people and the temple makes this lamentation, as in
@Ps 6:6.

[that] which I have built I will {d} break down, and that
which I have planted I will pluck up, even this whole land.

not: for, behold, I will bring evil upon all flesh, saith
the LORD: but thy life will I give to thee for {f} a prize
in all places where thou goest.
(e) "Do you think to have honour and credit?" in which he
shows his infirmity.
