28. “Is this man Coniah a despised, broken idol—A vessel in which is no pleasure?Why are they cast out, he and his descendants,And cast into a land which they do not know?
29. O earth, earth, earth,Hear the word of the Lord!
30. Thus says the Lord:‘Write this man down as childless,A man who shall not prosper in his days;For none of his descendants shall prosper,Sitting on the throne of David,And ruling anymore in Judah.’ ”
