Jeremiah 22:14-16

Revised Standard Version

¹⁴ who says, ‘I will build myself a great house
    with spacious upper rooms,’
and cuts out windows for it,
    paneling it with cedar,
    and painting it with vermilion.
¹⁵ Do you think you are a king
    because you compete in cedar?
Did not your father eat and drink
    and do justice and righteousness?
    Then it was well with him.
¹⁶ He judged the cause of the poor and needy;
    then it was well.
Is not this to know me?
                says the Lord.
