Jeremiah 22
King James Version
22 Thus saith the Lord; Go down to the house of the king of Judah, and speak there this word,
2 And say, Hear the word of the Lord, O king of Judah, that sittest upon the throne of David, thou, and thy servants, and thy people that enter in by these gates:
3 Thus saith the Lord; Execute ye judgment and righteousness, and deliver the spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor: and do no wrong, do no violence to the stranger, the fatherless, nor the widow, neither shed innocent blood in this place.
4 For if ye do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, he, and his servants, and his people.
5 But if ye will not hear these words, I swear by myself, saith the Lord, that this house shall become a desolation.
6 For thus saith the Lord unto the king's house of Judah; Thou art Gilead unto me, and the head of Lebanon: yet surely I will make thee a wilderness, and cities which are not inhabited.
7 And I will prepare destroyers against thee, every one with his weapons: and they shall cut down thy choice cedars, and cast them into the fire.
8 And many nations shall pass by this city, and they shall say every man to his neighbour, Wherefore hath the Lord done thus unto this great city?
9 Then they shall answer, Because they have forsaken the covenant of the Lord their God, and worshipped other gods, and served them.
10 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.
11 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:
12 But he shall die in the place whither they have led him captive, and shall see this land no more.
13 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;
14 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.
15 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?
16 He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then it was well with him: was not this to know me? saith the Lord.
17 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.
18 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!
19 He shall be buried with the burial of an ass, drawn and cast forth beyond the gates of Jerusalem.
20 Go up to Lebanon, and cry; and lift up thy voice in Bashan, and cry from the passages: for all thy lovers are destroyed.
21 I spake unto thee in thy prosperity; but thou saidst, I will not hear. This hath been thy manner from thy youth, that thou obeyedst not my voice.
22 The wind shall eat up all thy pastors, and thy lovers shall go into captivity: surely then shalt thou be ashamed and confounded for all thy wickedness.
23 O inhabitant of Lebanon, that makest thy nest in the cedars, how gracious shalt thou be when pangs come upon thee, the pain as of a woman in travail!
24 As I live, saith the Lord, though Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet upon my right hand, yet would I pluck thee thence;
25 And I will give thee into the hand of them that seek thy life, and into the hand of them whose face thou fearest, even into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans.
26 And I will cast thee out, and thy mother that bare thee, into another country, where ye were not born; and there shall ye die.
27 But to the land whereunto they desire to return, thither shall they not return.
28 Is this man Coniah a despised broken idol? is he a vessel wherein is no pleasure? wherefore are they cast out, he and his seed, and are cast into a land which they know not?
29 O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the Lord.
30 Thus saith the Lord, Write ye this man childless, a man that shall not prosper in his days: for no man of his seed shall prosper, sitting upon the throne of David, and ruling any more in Judah.

Profecías contra los reyes de Judá
22 Así dijo Jehová: Desciende a la casa del rey de Judá, y habla allí esta palabra, 2 y di: Oye palabra de Jehová, oh rey de Judá que estás sentado sobre el trono de David, tú, y tus siervos, y tu pueblo que entra por estas puertas. 3 Así ha dicho Jehová: Haced juicio y justicia, y librad al oprimido de mano del opresor, y no engañéis ni robéis al extranjero, ni al huérfano ni a la viuda, ni derraméis sangre inocente en este lugar. 4 Porque si efectivamente obedeciereis esta palabra, los reyes que en lugar de David se sientan sobre su trono, entrarán montados en carros y en caballos por las puertas de esta casa; ellos, y sus criados y su pueblo. 5 Mas si no oyereis estas palabras, por mí mismo he jurado, dice Jehová, que esta casa será desierta.
6 Porque así ha dicho Jehová acerca de la casa del rey de Judá: Como Galaad eres tú para mí, y como la cima del Líbano; sin embargo, te convertiré en soledad, y como ciudades deshabitadas. 7 Prepararé contra ti destruidores, cada uno con sus armas, y cortarán tus cedros escogidos y los echarán en el fuego.
8 Y muchas gentes pasarán junto a esta ciudad, y dirán cada uno a su compañero: ¿Por qué hizo así Jehová con esta gran ciudad? 9 Y se les responderá: Porque dejaron el pacto de Jehová su Dios, y adoraron dioses ajenos y les sirvieron.
10 No lloréis al muerto, ni de él os condoláis; llorad amargamente por el que se va, porque no volverá jamás, ni verá la tierra donde nació.
11 Porque así ha dicho Jehová acerca de Salum(A) hijo de Josías, rey de Judá, el cual reinó en lugar de Josías su padre, y que salió de este lugar: No volverá más aquí, 12 sino que morirá en el lugar adonde lo llevaron cautivo, y no verá más esta tierra.
13 ¡Ay del que edifica su casa sin justicia, y sus salas sin equidad, sirviéndose de su prójimo de balde, y no dándole el salario de su trabajo! 14 Que dice: Edificaré para mí casa espaciosa, y salas airosas; y le abre ventanas, y la cubre de cedro, y la pinta de bermellón. 15 ¿Reinarás, porque te rodeas de cedro? ¿No comió y bebió tu padre, e hizo juicio y justicia, y entonces le fue bien? 16 Él juzgó la causa del afligido y del menesteroso, y entonces estuvo bien. ¿No es esto conocerme a mí? dice Jehová. 17 Mas tus ojos y tu corazón no son sino para tu avaricia, y para derramar sangre inocente, y para opresión y para hacer agravio. 18 Por tanto, así ha dicho Jehová acerca de Joacim(B) hijo de Josías, rey de Judá: No lo llorarán, diciendo: ¡Ay, hermano mío! y ¡Ay, hermana! ni lo lamentarán, diciendo: ¡Ay, señor! ¡Ay, su grandeza! 19 En sepultura de asno será enterrado, arrastrándole y echándole fuera de las puertas de Jerusalén. 20 Sube al Líbano y clama, y en Basán da tu voz, y grita hacia todas partes; porque todos tus enamorados son destruidos. 21 Te he hablado en tus prosperidades, mas dijiste: No oiré. Este fue tu camino desde tu juventud, que nunca oíste mi voz. 22 A todos tus pastores pastoreará el viento, y tus enamorados irán en cautiverio; entonces te avergonzarás y te confundirás a causa de toda tu maldad. 23 Habitaste en el Líbano, hiciste tu nido en los cedros. ¡Cómo gemirás cuando te vinieren dolores, dolor como de mujer que está de parto!
24 Vivo yo, dice Jehová, que si Conías(C) hijo de Joacim rey de Judá fuera anillo en mi mano derecha, aun de allí te arrancaría. 25 Te entregaré en mano de los que buscan tu vida, y en mano de aquellos cuya vista temes; sí, en mano de Nabucodonosor rey de Babilonia, y en mano de los caldeos. 26 Te haré llevar cautivo a ti y a tu madre que te dio a luz, a tierra ajena en que no nacisteis; y allá moriréis. 27 Y a la tierra a la cual ellos con toda el alma anhelan volver, allá no volverán.
28 ¿Es este hombre Conías una vasija despreciada y quebrada? ¿Es un trasto que nadie estima? ¿Por qué fueron arrojados él y su generación, y echados a tierra que no habían conocido? 29 ¡Tierra, tierra, tierra!, oye palabra de Jehová. 30 Así ha dicho Jehová: Escribid lo que sucederá a este hombre privado de descendencia, hombre a quien nada próspero sucederá en todos los días de su vida; porque ninguno de su descendencia logrará sentarse sobre el trono de David, ni reinar sobre Judá.

22 Yahweh said, “Go down to the house of the king of Judah, and speak this word, there: 2 ‘Hear Yahweh’s word, king of Judah, who sits on David’s throne, you, your servants, and your people who enter in by these gates. 3 Yahweh says: “Execute justice and righteousness, and deliver him who is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor. Do no wrong. Do no violence to the foreigner, the fatherless, or the widow. Don’t shed innocent blood in this place. 4 For if you do this thing indeed, then kings sitting on David’s throne will enter in by the gates of this house, riding in chariots and on horses, he, his servants, and his people. 5 But if you will not hear these words, I swear by myself,” says Yahweh, “that this house will become a desolation.”’”
6 For Yahweh says concerning the house of the king of Judah:
“You are Gilead to me,
the head of Lebanon.
Yet surely I will make you a wilderness,
cities which are not inhabited.
7 I will prepare destroyers against you,
everyone with his weapons,
and they will cut down your choice cedars,
and cast them into the fire.
8 “Many nations will pass by this city, and they will each ask his neighbor, ‘Why has Yahweh done this to this great city?’ 9 Then they will answer, ‘Because they abandoned the covenant of Yahweh their God, worshiped other gods, and served them.’”
10 Don’t weep for the dead.
Don’t bemoan him;
but weep bitterly for him who goes away,
for he will return no more,
and not see his native country.
11 For Yahweh says touching Shallum the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who reigned instead of Josiah his father, and who went out of this place: “He won’t return there any more. 12 But he will die in the place where they have led him captive. He will see this land no more.”
13 “Woe to him who builds his house by unrighteousness,
and his rooms by injustice;
who uses his neighbor’s service without wages,
and doesn’t give him his hire;
14 who says, ‘I will build myself a wide house and spacious rooms,’
and cuts out windows for himself;
with a cedar ceiling,
and painted with red.
15 “Should you reign, because you strive to excel in cedar?
Didn’t your father eat and drink,
and do justice and righteousness?
Then it was well with him.
16 He judged the cause of the poor and needy;
so it was well, then.
Wasn’t this to know me?”
says Yahweh.
17 But your eyes and your heart are only for your covetousness,
for shedding innocent blood,
for oppression, and for doing violence.”
18 Therefore Yahweh says concerning Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah:
“They won’t lament for him,
saying, ‘Ah my brother!’ or, ‘Ah sister!’
They won’t lament for him,
saying ‘Ah lord!’ or, ‘Ah his glory!’
19 He will be buried with the burial of a donkey,
drawn and cast out beyond the gates of Jerusalem.”
20 “Go up to Lebanon, and cry.
Lift up your voice in Bashan,
and cry from Abarim;
for all your lovers have been destroyed.
21 I spoke to you in your prosperity;
but you said, ‘I will not listen.’
This has been your way from your youth,
that you didn’t obey my voice.
22 The wind will feed all your shepherds,
and your lovers will go into captivity.
Surely then you will be ashamed
and confounded for all your wickedness.
23 Inhabitant of Lebanon,
who makes your nest in the cedars,
how greatly to be pitied you will be when pangs come on you,
the pain as of a woman in travail!
24 “As I live,” says Yahweh, “though Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet on my right hand, I would still pluck you from there. 25 I would give you into the hand of those who seek your life, and into the hand of them of whom you are afraid, even into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans. 26 I will cast you out with your mother who bore you into another country, where you were not born; and there you will die. 27 But to the land to which their soul longs to return, there they will not return.”
28 Is this man Coniah a despised broken vessel?
Is he a vessel in which no one delights?
Why are they cast out, he and his offspring,
and cast into a land which they don’t know?
29 O earth, earth, earth,
hear Yahweh’s word!
30 Yahweh says,
“Record this man as childless,
a man who will not prosper in his days;
for no more will a man of his offspring prosper,
sitting on David’s throne,
and ruling in Judah.”
