Jeremiah 22:13–19

^13xWoe unto ^yhim that buildeth his house by unrighteousness,

And his ^zchambers by wrong;

^aThat useth his neighbour’s service ^bwithout wages,

And giveth him not for his work;

¹⁴That saith, I will build me a wide house and large ^zchambers,

And cutteth him out windows;

And it is ^ccieled with cedar, and painted ^dwith vermilion.

¹⁵Shalt thou reign, because thou ^eclosest thyself in cedar?

Did not thy father eat and drink,

And ^fdo judgment and justice,

And then ^git was well with him?

¹⁶He judged ^hthe cause of the poor and needy; then ^git was well with him:

Was not this ⁱto know me? saith the Lord.

^17jBut thine eyes and thine heart are not but for thy ^kcovetousness,

And ^jfor to shed innocent blood,

And ^jlfor oppression, and for violence, to do it.

¹⁸Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning ^mJehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah;

ⁿThey shall not lament for him, saying, ^oAh my brother! or, Ah sister!

They shall not lament for him, saying, ^pAh lord! or, Ah his glory.

¹⁹He shall be buried with the burial of an ass,

^qDrawn and cast forth beyond the gates of Jerusalem.
