Jeremiah 22:10-12

10 Weep not for (A)the dead, nor bemoan him;
Weep bitterly for him (B)who goes away,
For he shall return no more,
Nor see his native country.

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.
