Jeconiah

20 Go up to Lebanon and cry out;
    lift up your voice in Bashan.
Cry out from Abarim,
    for all your lovers have been crushed.[a]
21 I spoke to you when you enjoyed prosperity,
    but you replied, “I will not listen.”
You have behaved this way from your youth,
    refusing to listen to my voice.
22 The wind will carry away all your shepherds,
    and your lovers will go off into captivity.
Then you will be ashamed and blush
    because of all your wickedness.
