- In this really short chapter, God contacts Jeremiah with a promise for Baruch (made during Jehoiakim's reign).
- He's heard Baruch complaining about the sorrow and suffering he's been forced to endure while he's been copying and recopying the scroll of Jeremiah's prophecies.
- God says it's not necessarily going to get much better, so he shouldn't expect much.
- But he promises Baruch that he'll survive wherever he goes.
