Jeremiah 22:14-16
New American Standard Bible
14 Who says, ‘I will (A)build myself a large house
With spacious upstairs rooms,
And cut out its windows,
[a]Paneling it with (B)cedar and painting it [b]bright red.’
15 Do you become a king because you are competing in cedar?
Did your father not eat and drink
And (C)do justice and righteousness?
Then it was (D)well for him.
16 He pled the cause of the (E)afflicted and the poor,
Then it was well.
(F)Is that not what it means to know Me?”
Declares the Lord.
