Jeremiah 22:14-16

New International Reader's Version

¹⁵ “Jehoiakim, does having more and more cedar boards
    make you a king?
Your father Josiah had enough to eat and drink.
    He did what was right and fair.
    So everything went well with him.
¹⁶ He stood up for those who were poor or needy.
    So everything went well with him.
That is what it means to know me,”
    announces the Lord.
