Jeremiah 22:17-19
New International Version - UK
17 ‘But your eyes and your heart
are set only on dishonest gain,
on shedding innocent blood
and on oppression and extortion.’
18 Therefore this is what the Lord says about Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah:
‘They will not mourn for him:
“Alas, my brother! Alas, my sister!”
They will not mourn for him:
“Alas, my master! Alas, his splendour!”
19 He will have the burial of a donkey –
dragged away and thrown
outside the gates of Jerusalem.’
