Jeremiah 22:5-7
Modern English Version

5 But if you will not obey these words, I swear by Myself, says the Lord, that this house will become a desolation.

6 For thus says the Lord to the king’s house of Judah:

You are Gilead to Me,
    and the peak of Lebanon;
yet surely I will make you a wilderness
    and cities which are not inhabited.
7 I will prepare destroyers against you,
    everyone with his weapons;
and they shall cut down your choice cedars
    and cast them into the fire.

Jeremiah 22:5-7
New International Version

5 But if you do not obey(A) these commands, declares the Lord, I swear(B) by myself that this palace will become a ruin.’”

6 For this is what the Lord says about the palace of the king of Judah:

“Though you are like Gilead(C) to me,
    like the summit of Lebanon,(D)
I will surely make you like a wasteland,(E)
    like towns not inhabited.
7 I will send destroyers(F) against you,
    each man with his weapons,
and they will cut(G) up your fine cedar beams
    and throw them into the fire.(H)
