Jeremiah 22:17-19
International Standard Version
17 But your eyes and heart are on nothing but
your dishonest gain,
shedding the blood of innocent people,
and practicing oppression and extortion.”
18 Therefore, this is what the Lord says about Josiah’s son Jehoiakim, king of Judah,
“They won’t lament for him with these words:[a]
‘How terrible, my brother,
How terrible, my sister!’
They won’t lament for him with these words:[b]
‘How terrible, lord,
How terrible, your[c] majesty!’
19 He will receive[d] a donkey’s burial,
dragged out and thrown outside the gates of Jerusalem.”
