24:022:010 Weep ye not for the dead, neither bemoan him: but weep sore
for him that goeth away: for he shall return no more, nor see
his native country.
24:022:011 For thus saith the LORD touching Shallum the son of Josiah king of Judah, which reigned instead of Josiah his father, which went forth out of this place; He shall not return thither any more:
24:022:012 But he shall die in the place whither they have led him captive, and shall see this land no more.
24:022:013 Woe unto him that buildeth his house by unrighteousness, and
his chambers by wrong; that useth his neighbour's service
without wages, and giveth him not for his work;
24:022:014 That saith, I will build me a wide house and large chambers,
and cutteth him out windows; and it is cieled with cedar, and
painted with vermilion.
24:022:015 Shalt thou reign, because thou closest thyself in cedar? did
not thy father eat and drink, and do judgment and justice, and
then it was well with him?
24:022:016 He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then it was well with him: was not this to know me? saith the LORD.
24:022:017 But thine eyes and thine heart are not but for thy covetousness, and for to shed innocent blood, and for oppression, and for violence, to do it.
24:022:018 Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah; They shall not lament for him, saying, Ah my brother! or, Ah sister! they shall not lament for him, saying, Ah lord! or, Ah his glory!
24:022:019 He shall be buried with the burial of an ass, drawn and cast
forth beyond the gates of Jerusalem.
