Jeremiah 26:20-24 | Jeremiah_22:13-19 | Jeremiah 36:9-9

13. Woe unto him that buildeth his house by unrighteousness, and his chambers by wrong; useth his neighbour's service without wages, and giveth him not for his work;
14. That saith, I will build me a wide house and large chambers, and cutteth him out windows; and cieled with cedar, and painted with vermilion.
15. Shalt thou reign, because thou closest in cedar? did not thy father eat and drink, and do judgment and justice, then well with him?
16. He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then well not this to know me? saith יְהוָ֥ה.
17. But thine eyes and thine heart not but for thy covetousness, and for to shed innocent blood, and for oppression, and for violence, to do.
18. Therefore thus saith יְהוָ֥ה concerning Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah; They shall not lament for him, Ah my brother! or, Ah sister! they shall not lament for him, Ah lord! or, Ah his glory!
19. He shall be buried with the burial of an ass, drawn and cast forth beyond the gates of Jerusalem.
