Jeremiah 22:24-30
Legacy Standard Bible
24 “As I live,” declares Yahweh, “even though [a](A)Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were a (B)signet ring on My right hand, yet I would pull [b]you [c]off; 25 and I will (C)give you over into the hand of those who are seeking your life, indeed, into the hand of those whom you dread, even into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and into the hand of the Chaldeans. 26 I will (D)hurl you and your (E)mother who bore you into another land—there you were not born, but there you will die. 27 But as for the land to which their soul desires to return, they will not return to it.
28 Is this man Coniah a despised, shattered jar?
Or is he an (F)undesirable vessel?
Why have he and his seed been (G)hurled out
And cast into a (H)land that they had not known?
29 (I)O land, land, land,
Hear the word of Yahweh!
30 Thus says Yahweh,
‘Write this man down (J)childless,
A man who will (K)not succeed in his days;
For no man of his (L)seed will succeed
Sitting on the throne of David
Or ruling again in Judah.’”

Judgment on Coniah (Jehoiachin)
24 As I live, says the Lord, even if King Coniah son of Jehoiakim of Judah were the signet ring on my right hand, even from there I would tear you off(A) 25 and give you into the hands of those who seek your life, into the hands of those whom you fear, even into the hands of King Nebuchadrezzar of Babylon and into the hands of the Chaldeans.(B) 26 I will hurl you and the mother who bore you into another country, where you were not born, and there you shall die.(C) 27 But they shall not return to the land to which they long to return.
28 Is this man Coniah a despised broken pot,
a vessel no one wants?
Why are he and his offspring hurled out
and cast away in a land that they do not know?
29 O land, land, land,
hear the word of the Lord!(D)
30 Thus says the Lord:
Record this man as childless,
a man who shall not succeed in his days,
for none of his offspring shall succeed
in sitting on the throne of David
and ruling again in Judah.(E)
