Jeremiah 22
1 Thus he said Yahweh go down [the] house of [the] king of Judah and you will speak there the word this.
Thus said Jehovah: "Go down to the house of the king of Judah, and speak there this word,
2 And you will say hear [the] word of Yahweh O king of Judah who sits on [the] throne of David you and servants your and people your who come in the gates these.
Say, 'Hear the word of Jehovah, king of Judah, who sits on the throne of David, you, and your servants, and your people who enter in by these gates.
3 Thus - he says Yahweh do justice and righteousness and deliver [one who] has been robbed from [the] hand of an oppressor and sojourner fatherless and widow may not you maltreat may not you treat violently and blood innocent may not you shed in the place this.
Thus says Jehovah: "Execute justice and righteousness, and deliver him who is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor: and do no wrong, do no violence, to the foreigner, the fatherless, nor the widow; neither shed innocent blood in this place.
4 That except certainly you will do the thing this and they will go in [the] gates of the house this kings [who] sit for David on throne his [who] ride in chariot[s] and on horses he (and servants his *Q(K)*) and people his.
For if you do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, he, and his servants, and his people.
5 And if not you will listen to the words these by myself I swear [the] utterance of Yahweh that a ruin it will become the house this.
But if you will not hear these words, I swear by myself, says Jehovah, that this house shall become a desolation."
6 For thus - he says Yahweh on [the] house of [the] king of Judah [are] Gilead you to me [the] top of Lebanon if not I will make you a wilderness cities [which] not (they are inhabited. *Q(K)*)
For thus says Jehovah concerning the house of the king of Judah: "You are Gilead to me, the head of Lebanon. Yet surely I will make you a wilderness, cities which are not inhabited.
7 And I will consecrate on you destroyers everyone and weapons his and they will cut down [the] choicest of cedars your and they will cast [them] on the fire.
I will prepare destroyers against you, everyone with his weapons; and they shall cut down your choice cedars, and cast them into the fire.
8 And they will pass by nations many at the city this and they will say each to neighbor his concerning what? did he do Yahweh thus to the city great this.
Many nations shall pass by this city, and they shall say every man to his neighbor, 'Why has Jehovah done thus to this great city?'
9 And they will say on that they forsook [the] covenant of Yahweh God their and they bowed down to gods other and they served them.
Then they shall answer, 'Because they forsook the covenant of Jehovah their God, and worshiped other gods, and served them.'
10 May not you weep for [the] dead and may not you show sympathy to him weep continually for one [who] is about to go away for not he will return again and he will see [the] land of kindred his.
Do not weep for the dead, neither bemoan him; but weep bitterly for him who goes away; for he shall return no more, nor see his native country."
11 For thus he says Yahweh to Shallum [the] son of Josiah [the] king of Judah who is reigning in place of Josiah father his who he went forth from the place this not he will return there again.
For thus says Jehovah touching Shallum the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who reigned instead of Josiah his father, and who went forth out of this place: "He shall not return there any more.
12 For in [the] place where they took into exile him there he will die and the land this not he will see again.
But in the place where they have led him captive, there shall he die, and he shall see this land no more."
13 Woe to! [one who] builds house his with not righteousness and upper rooms his with not justice by fellow-citizen his he works without paying and wage[s] his not he gives to him.
Woe to him who builds his house by unrighteousness, and his rooms by injustice; who uses his neighbor's service without wages, and doesn't give him his hire;
14 The [one who] says I will build for myself a house of size and upper rooms spacious and he will tear for himself windows my and paneled with cedar and he will smear [it] with vermilion.
who says, "I will build me a wide house and spacious rooms," and cuts him out windows; and it is ceiling with cedar, and painted with vermilion.
15 ¿ Are you king for you [are] competing in cedar father your ¿ not did he eat and did he drink? and did he do? justice and righteousness then it was well for him.
Shall you reign, because you strive to excel in cedar? Did not your father eat and drink, and do justice and righteousness? Then it was well with him.
16 He defended [the] cause of [the] poor and [the] needy then was well ¿ not [is] that the knowledge me [the] utterance of Yahweh.
He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then it was well. Wasn't this to know me?' says Jehovah.
17 That [are] not eyes your and heart your that except on unjust gain your and on [the] blood of the innocent [person] to shed [it] and on oppression and on extortion to do [it].
"But your eyes and your heart are not but for your covetousness, and for shedding innocent blood, and for oppression, and for violence, to do it."
18 Therefore thus he says Yahweh to Jehoiakim [the] son of Josiah [the] king of Judah not people will mourn for him alas! O brother my and alas! O sister not people will mourn for him alas! O lord and alas! (splendor his. *Q(K)*)
Therefore thus says Jehovah concerning Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah: "they shall not lament for him, saying, 'Alas my brother. or, Alas sister.' They shall not lament for him, saying, 'Alas lord.' or, 'Alas his majesty.'
19 [the] burial of A donkey he will be buried people will drag and people will throw out from beyond [the] gates of Jerusalem.
He shall be buried with the burial of a donkey, drawn and cast forth beyond the gates of Jerusalem.
20 Go up Lebanon and cry out and in Bashan give forth voice your and cry out from Abarim for they have been broken all lovers your.
Go up to Lebanon, and cry; and lift up your voice in Bashan, and cry from Abarim; for all your lovers are destroyed.
21 I spoke to you in prosperity your you said not I will listen this [has been] way your since youth your that not you have listened to voice my.
I spoke to you in your prosperity; but you said, 'I will not hear.' This has been your way from your youth, that you did not obey my voice.
22 All shepherds your it will shepherd a wind and lovers your in captivity they will go for then you will be ashamed and you will be humiliated from all wickedness your.
The wind shall feed all your shepherds, and your lovers shall go into captivity: surely then you will be ashamed and confounded for all your wickedness.
23 (O [you who] dwell *Q(K)*) in Lebanon ([who is] nested *Q(k)*) among the cedars how! you will groan when will come to you labor-pains anguish like [woman] giving birth.
Inhabitant of Lebanon, who makes your nest in the cedars, how greatly you will groan when pangs come on you, the pain as of a woman in travail.
24 [by] [the] life Of me [the] utterance of Yahweh that except he will be Coniah [the] son of Jehoiakim [the] king of Judah a signet-ring on [the] hand of right my for from there I will pull off you.
As I live," says Jehovah, "though Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet on my right hand, yet would I pluck you there;
25 And I will give you in [the] hand of [those who] seek life your and in [the] hand of [those] whom you [are] fearful of them and in [the] hand of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon and in [the] hand of the Chaldeans.
and I will give you into the hand of those who seek your life, and into the hand of them of whom you are afraid, even into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans.
26 And I will throw out you and mother your who she bore you to the land another where not you were born there and there you will die.
I will cast you out, and your mother who bore you, into another country, where you were not born; and there you will die.
27 And to the land where they [will be] lifting desire their to return there there towards not they will return.
But to the land whereunto their soul longs to return, there shall they not return."
28 ¿ A pot despised smashed [is] the man this Coniah or? a vessel [which] there not [is] pleasure in it why? have they been thrown out he and offspring his and have they been thrown? to the land which not they knew.
Is this man Coniah a despised broken vessel? Is he a vessel in which none delights? Why are they cast out, he and his descendants, and cast into a land that they do not know?
29 O land O land O land hear [the] word of Yahweh.
O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of Jehovah.
30 Thus - he says Yahweh record the man this childless a man [who] not he will prosper in days his for not he will prosper any of offspring his anyone [will be] sitting on [the] throne of David and ruling again over Judah.
Thus says Jehovah, "Write this man down childless, a man who will not succeed in his days; for none of his descendants will succeed in sitting on the throne of David, and ruling in Judah.
