Jeremiah 22:24-30
Amplified Bible
Jeremiah 22:24-30
Amplified Bible
24 “As I live,” says the Lord, “though [a]Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet [ring] on My right hand, yet would I pull you (Coniah) off. 25 And I will place you in the hand of those who seek your life and in the hand of those whom you fear, even into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and into the hand of the [b]Chaldeans. 26 I will hurl you and the mother who gave you birth into another country where you were not born, and there you will die. 27 But as for the land to which they long to return, they will not return to it.
28
“Is this man [King] Coniah a despised, broken jar?
Is he a vessel in which no one takes pleasure?
Why are he and his [royal] descendants hurled out
And cast into a land which they do not know or understand?
29
“O land, land, land,
Hear the word of the Lord!
30 Thus says the Lord,
‘Write this man [Coniah] down as childless,
A man who will not prosper (succeed) in his lifetime;
For not one of his descendants will succeed
In sitting on the throne of David
Or ruling again in Judah.’”

Jeremiah 22:24-30
New International Version
Jeremiah 22:24-30
New International Version
24 “As surely as I live,” declares the Lord, “even if you, Jehoiachin[a](A) son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, were a signet ring(B) on my right hand, I would still pull you off. 25 I will deliver(C) you into the hands of those who want to kill you, those you fear—Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and the Babylonians.[b] 26 I will hurl(D) you and the mother(E) who gave you birth into another country, where neither of you was born, and there you both will die. 27 You will never come back to the land you long to return(F) to.”
28 Is this man Jehoiachin(G) a despised, broken pot,(H)
an object no one wants?
Why will he and his children be hurled(I) out,
cast into a land(J) they do not know?
29 O land,(K) land, land,
hear the word of the Lord!
30 This is what the Lord says:
“Record this man as if childless,(L)
a man who will not prosper(M) in his lifetime,
for none of his offspring(N) will prosper,
none will sit on the throne(O) of David
or rule anymore in Judah.”
