king

Judah
, that
sittest
upon the
throne
of
David
, thou, and thy
servants

strkjv@Jeremiah:22:3
@ Thus
saith
the
LORD
;
Execute
ye
judgment
and
righteousness
, and
deliver
the
spoiled
out of the
hand
of the
oppressor
: and do no
wrong
, do no
violence
to the
stranger

saith

house
shall become a
desolation

strkjv@Jeremiah:22:6
@ For thus
saith
the
LORD
unto the
kings
house

Judah
; Thou art
Gilead
unto me, and the
head
of
Lebanon
: yet srely I will
make
thee a
wilderness

cities
which are not
inhabited

strkjv@Jeremiah:22:7
@ And I will
prepare
destroyers
against thee, every
one

down

choice
cedars

cast
them into the
fire
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:22:8
@ And
many
nations
shall
pass
by this
city

say
every
man
to his
neighbour
, Wherefore hath the
LORD
done
thus unto this
great
city
?
strkjv@Jeremiah:22:9
@ Then they shall
answer
, Because they have
forsaken
the
covenant
of the
LORD
their
God
, and
worshipped
other
gods
, and
served
them.
strkjv@Jeremiah:22:10
@
Weep
ye not for the
dead
, neither
bemoan
him: but
weep
sore
for him that goeth
away
: for he shall
return
no more, nor
see
his
native
country

saith

LORD

Shallum

forth
out of this

thither any more:
strkjv@Jeremiah:22:12

Woe
unto him that
buildeth
his
house
by
unrighteousness

by
wrong
; that useth his

service

giveth
him not for his
work

me a

with
cedar

painted
with
vermilion

strkjv@Jeremiah:22:15
@ Shalt thou
reign
, because thou
closest
thyself in
cedar
? did not thy
father
eat

drink
, and
do
judgment
and
justice
, and then it was
well
with him?
strkjv@Jeremiah:22:16
@ He
judged
