Jeremiah 22:5-7
New Living Translation

5 But if you refuse to pay attention to this warning, I swear by my own name, says the Lord, that this palace will become a pile of rubble.’”

A Message about the Palace

6 Now this is what the Lord says concerning Judah’s royal palace:

“I love you as much as fruitful Gilead
    and the green forests of Lebanon.
But I will turn you into a desert,
    with no one living within your walls.
7 I will call for wreckers,
    who will bring out their tools to dismantle you.
They will tear out all your fine cedar beams
    and throw them on 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)
