Jeremiah 22:13-19
Legacy Standard Bible
13 “Woe to him who builds his house (A)without righteousness
And his [a]upper rooms without justice,
Who uses his neighbor’s services without pay
And (B)does not give him his wages,
14 Who says, ‘I will (C)build myself a roomy house
With spacious [b]upper rooms
And cut out its windows,
[c]Paneling it with (D)cedar and painting it [d]bright red.’
15 Do you become a king because you are competing in cedar?
Did not your father eat and drink
And (E)do justice and righteousness?
Then it was (F)well with him.
16 He pled the cause of the (G)afflicted and needy;
Then it was well.
(H)Is not that what it means to know Me?”
Declares Yahweh.
17 “But your eyes and your heart
Are set on nothing except your own (I)greedy gain
And on (J)shedding innocent blood
And on doing oppression and extortion.”
18 Therefore thus says Yahweh in regard to (K)Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah,
“They will not (L)lament for him:
‘(M)Alas, my brother!’ or, ‘Alas, sister!’
They will not lament for him:
‘Alas for the master!’ or, ‘Alas for his splendor!’
19 He will be (N)buried with a donkey’s burial,
Dragged off and thrown out beyond the gates of Jerusalem.

Jeremiah 22:13-19
Holman Christian Standard Bible
A Message concerning Jehoiakim
13 Woe for the one who builds his palace
through unrighteousness,(A)
his upper rooms through injustice,
who makes his fellow man serve without pay
and will not give him his wages,(B)
14 who says, “I will build myself a massive palace,
with spacious upper rooms.”
He will cut windows[a] in it,
and it will be paneled with cedar
and painted with vermilion.
15 Are you a king because you excel in cedar?
Didn’t your father eat and drink
and administer justice and righteousness?(C)
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.
17 But you have eyes and a heart for nothing
except your own dishonest profit,
shedding innocent blood
and committing extortion and oppression.
18 Therefore, this is what the Lord says concerning Jehoiakim(D) son of Josiah, king of Judah:
They will not mourn for him, saying,
“Woe, my brother!” or “Woe, my sister!”
They will not mourn for him, saying,
“Woe, lord! Woe, his majesty!”
19 He will be buried like a donkey,(E)
dragged off and thrown
outside the gates of Jerusalem.
