28 Jehoiachin is like a broken pot someone threw away;
    he is like something no one wants.
Why will Jehoiachin and his children be thrown out
    and sent into a foreign land?
29 Land, land, land of Judah,
    hear the word of the Lord!
30 This is what the Lord says:
“Write this down in the record about Jehoiachin:
    He is a man without children,
    a man who will not be successful in his lifetime.
And none of his descendants will be successful;
    none will sit on the throne of David
    or rule in Judah.”

28 Is this man Jehoiachin(A) a despised, broken pot,(B)
    an object no one wants?
Why will he and his children be hurled(C) out,
    cast into a land(D) they do not know?
29 O land,(E) land, land,
    hear the word of the Lord!
30 This is what the Lord says:
“Record this man as if childless,(F)
    a man who will not prosper(G) in his lifetime,
for none of his offspring(H) will prosper,
    none will sit on the throne(I) of David
    or rule anymore in Judah.”
