Jeremiah:22:20-26
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Go up to Lebanon ,
and cry ;
and lift up thy voice in Bashan ,
and cry from the passages :
for all thy lovers are destroyed .
*
I spake unto thee in thy prosperity ;
but thou saidst ,
I will not hear .
This hath been thy manner from thy youth ,
that thou obeyedst not my voice .
*
The wind shall eat up all thy pastors ,
and thy lovers shall go into captivity :
surely then shalt thou be ashamed and confounded for all thy wickedness .
*
O inhabitant of Lebanon ,
that makest thy nest in the cedars ,
how gracious shalt thou be when pangs come upon thee ,
the pain as of a woman in travail !
*
As I live ,
saith the LORD ,
though Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet upon my right hand ,
yet would I pluck thee thence ;
*
And I will give thee into the hand of them that seek thy life ,
and into the hand of them whose face thou fearest ,
even into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon ,
and into the hand of the Chaldeans .
*
And I will cast thee out ,
and thy mother that bare thee ,
into another country ,
where ye were not born ;
and there shall ye die .
