절	Contemporary English Version (2006)	King James Version
1	—	Thus saith the Lord; Go down to the house of the king of Judah, and speak there this word,
2	—	And say, Hear the word of the Lord, O king of Judah, that sittest upon the throne of David, thou, and thy servants, and thy people that enter in by these gates:
3	The Will Punish the King of Judah The Lord sent me to the palace of the king of Judah to speak to the king, his officials, and everyone else who was there. The Lord told me to say: I am the Lord, so pay attention! You have been allowing people to cheat, rob, and take advantage of widows, orphans, and foreigners who live here. Innocent people have become victims of injustice, and some of them have even been killed. But now I command you to do what is right and see that justice is done. Rescue everyone who has suffered from injustice.	Thus saith the Lord; Execute ye judgment and righteousness, and deliver the spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor: and do no wrong, do no violence to the stranger, the fatherless, nor the widow, neither shed innocent blood in this place.
4	If you obey me, the kings from David's family will continue to rule Judah from this palace. They and their officials will ride in and out on their horses or in their chariots.	For if ye do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, he, and his servants, and his people.
5	But if you ignore me, I promise in my own name that this palace will lie in ruins.	But if ye will not hear these words, I swear by myself, saith the Lord, that this house shall become a desolation.
6	Listen to what I think about it: The palace of Judah's king is as glorious as Gilead or Lebanon's highest peaks. But it will be as empty as a ghost-town when I'm through with it.	For thus saith the Lord unto the king’s house of Judah; Thou art Gilead unto me, and the head of Lebanon: yet surely I will make thee a wilderness, and cities which are not inhabited.
7	I'll send troops to tear it apart, and its beautiful cedar beams will be used for firewood.	And I will prepare destroyers against thee, every one with his weapons: and they shall cut down thy choice cedars, and cast them into the fire.
8	People from different nations will pass by and ask, “Why did the Lord do this to such a great city as Jerusalem?”	And many nations shall pass by this city, and they shall say every man to his neighbour, Wherefore hath the Lord done thus unto this great city?
9	Others will answer, “It's because the people worshiped foreign gods and broke the agreement that the Lord their God had made with them.”	Then they shall answer, Because they have forsaken the covenant of the Lord their God, and worshipped other gods, and served them.
10	King Jehoahaz / The said: King Josiah is dead, so don't mourn for him. Instead, mourn for his son King Jehoahaz, dragged off to another country, never to return.	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	Jehoahaz became king of Judah after his father King Josiah died. But Jehoahaz was taken as a prisoner to a foreign country. Now I, the Lord, promise that he will die there without ever seeing his own land again. *	But he shall die in the place whither they have led him captive, and shall see this land no more.
13	King Jehoiakim / The told me to say: King Jehoiakim, you are doomed! You built a palace with large rooms upstairs.	Woe unto him that buildeth his house by unrighteousness, and his chambers by wrong; that useth his neighbour’s service without wages, and giveth him not for his work;
14	You put in big windows and used cedar paneling and red paint. But you were unfair and forced the builders to work without pay. *	That saith, I will build me a wide house and large chambers, and cutteth him out windows; and it is cieled with cedar, and painted with vermilion.
15	More cedar in your palace doesn't make you a better king than your father Josiah. He always did right— he gave justice to the poor and was honest.	Shalt thou reign, because thou closest thyself in cedar? did not thy father eat and drink, and do judgment and justice, and then it was well with him?
16	That's what it means to truly know me. So he lived a comfortable life and always had enough to eat and drink.	He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then it was well with him: was not this to know me? saith the Lord.
17	But all you think about is how to cheat or abuse or murder some innocent victim.	But thine eyes and thine heart are not but for thy covetousness, and for to shed innocent blood, and for oppression, and for violence, to do it.
18	Jehoiakim, no one will mourn at your funeral. They won't turn to each other and ask, “Why did our great king have to die?”	Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah; They shall not lament for him, saying, Ah my brother! or, Ah sister! they shall not lament for him, saying, Ah lord! or, Ah his glory!
19	You will be given a burial fit for a donkey; your body will be dragged outside the city gates and tossed in the dirt. I, the Lord, have spoken.	He shall be buried with the burial of an ass, drawn and cast forth beyond the gates of Jerusalem.
20	King Jehoiachin and the People of Jerusalem / The told me to say: People of Jerusalem, the nations you trusted have been crushed. Go to Lebanon and weep; cry in the land of Bashan and in Moab.	Go up to Lebanon, and cry; and lift up thy voice in Bashan, and cry from the passages: for all thy lovers are destroyed.
21	When times were good, I warned you. But you ignored me, just as you have done since Israel was young.	I spake unto thee in thy prosperity; but thou saidst, I will not hear. This hath been thy manner from thy youth, that thou obeyedst not my voice.
22	Now you will be disgraced because of your sins. Your leaders will be swept away by the wind, and the nations you trusted will be captured and dragged to a foreign country.	The wind shall eat up all thy pastors, and thy lovers shall go into captivity: surely then shalt thou be ashamed and confounded for all thy wickedness.
23	Those who live in the palace paneled with cedar will groan with pain like women giving birth.	O inhabitant of Lebanon, that makest thy nest in the cedars, how gracious shalt thou be when pangs come upon thee, the pain as of a woman in travail!
24	King Jehoiachin, son of Jehoiakim, even if you were the ring I wear as the sign of my royal power, I would still pull you from my finger.	As I live, saith the Lord, though Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet upon my right hand, yet would I pluck thee thence;
25	I would hand you over to the enemy you fear, to King Nebuchadnezzar and his army, who want to kill you.	And I will give thee into the hand of them that seek thy life, and into the hand of them whose face thou fearest, even into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans.
26	You and your mother were born in Judah, but I will throw both of you into a foreign country, where you will die,	And I will cast thee out, and thy mother that bare thee, into another country, where ye were not born; and there shall ye die.
27	longing to return home.	But to the land whereunto they desire to return, thither shall they not return.
28	Jehoiachin, you are unwanted like a broken clay pot. So you and your children will be thrown into a country you know nothing about.	Is this man Coniah a despised broken idol? is he a vessel wherein is no pleasure? wherefore are they cast out, he and his seed, and are cast into a land which they know not?
29	Land of Judah, I am the Lord. Now listen to what I say!	O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the Lord.
30	Erase the names of Jehoiachin's children from the royal records. He is a complete failure, and so none of them will ever be king. I, the Lord, have spoken.	Thus saith the Lord, Write ye this man childless, a man that shall not prosper in his days: for no man of his seed shall prosper, sitting upon the throne of David, and ruling any more in Judah.
