Jeremiah 22:15-16

Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹⁵ Are you a king because you excel in cedar?
Didn’t your father eat and drink
and administer justice and righteousness?^(A)
Then it went well with him.
¹⁶ He took up the case of the poor and needy,
then it went well.
Is this not what it means to know Me?
This is the Lord’s declaration.
