Jeremiah, Chapter 22, verses 13-30

¹³

“Woe to him who builds his house without righteousness
And his^dupper rooms without justice,
Who uses his neighbor’s services without pay
And does not give him his wages,

¹⁴

Who says, ‘I will build myself a roomy house
With spacious^eupper rooms,
And cut out its windows,
^fPaneling it with cedar and painting it^gbright red.’

¹⁵

“Do you become a king because you are competing in cedar?
Did not your father eat and drink
And do justice and righteousness?
Then it was well with him.

¹⁶

“He pled the cause of the afflicted and needy;
Then it was well.
Is not that what it means to know Me?”
Declares the LORD.

¹⁷

“But your eyes and your heart
Are intent only upon your own dishonest gain,
And on shedding innocent blood
And on practicing oppression and extortion.”

¹⁸ Therefore thus says the LORD in regard to Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah,“They will not lament for him:
‘Alas, my brother!’ or, ‘Alas, sister!’
They will not lament for him:
‘Alas for the master!’ or, ‘Alas for his splendor!’

¹⁹“He will be buried with a donkey’s burial,
Dragged off and thrown out beyond the gates of Jerusalem.

²⁰“Go up to Lebanon and cry out,
And lift up your voice in Bashan;
Cry out also from Abarim,
For all your lovers have been crushed.

²¹“I spoke to you in your prosperity;
But you said, ‘I will not listen!’
This has been your practice from your youth,
That you have not obeyed My voice.

²²“The wind will sweep away all your shepherds,
And your lovers will go into captivity;
Then you will surely be ashamed and humiliated
Because of all your wickedness.

²³“You who dwell in Lebanon,
Nested in the cedars,
How you will groan when pangs come upon you,
Pain like a woman in childbirth!

²⁴ “As I live,” declares the LORD, “even though^hConiah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were a signet ring on My right hand, yet I would pullⁱyou^joff; ²⁵ and I will give you over into the hand of those who are seeking your life, yes, into the hand of those whom you dread, even into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and into the hand of the Chaldeans. ²⁶ I will hurl you and your mother who bore you into another country where you were not born, and there you will die. ²⁷ But as for the land to which they desire to return, they will not return to it.

²⁸

“Is this man Coniah a despised, shattered jar?
Or is he an undesirable vessel?
Why have he and his descendants been hurled out
And cast into a land that they had not known?

²⁹

“O land, land, land,
Hear the word of the LORD!

³⁰ “Thus says the LORD,‘Write this man down childless,
A man who will not prosper in his days;
For no man of his descendants will prosper
Sitting on the throne of David
Or ruling again in Judah.’”
