Jeremiah 22:12-14

Good News Translation

¹³ Doomed is the one who builds his house by injustice
    and enlarges it by dishonesty;
who makes his people work for nothing
    and does not pay their wages.
¹⁴ Doomed is the one who says,
    “I will build myself a mansion
    with spacious rooms upstairs.”
So he puts windows in his house,
    panels it with cedar,
    and paints it red.
