Jeremiah 22:25-30 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

25. and give you to people you are afraid of, people who want to kill you. I will give you to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylonia and his soldiers.

26. I am going to force you and your mother into exile. You will go to a country where neither of you was born, and both of you will die there.

27. You will long to see this country again, but you will never return.”

28. I said, “Has King Jehoiachin become like a broken jar that is thrown away and that no one wants? Is that why he and his children have been taken into exile to a land they know nothing about?”

29. O land, land, land!Listen to what the Lord has said:

30. “This man is condemned to lose his children,to be a man who will never succeed.He will have no descendantswho will rule in Judahas David's successors.I, the Lord, have spoken.”
