Jeremiah 22:1-3

GOD’S WORD Translation

Warnings to the Wicked Kings

22 This is what the Lord says: Go to the palace of the king of Judah, and speak this message there: ² “Listen to the Lord’s word, you officials, you people who come into these gates, and you, king of Judah, the one sitting on David’s throne.

³ “This is what the Lord says: Judge fairly, and do what is right. Rescue those who have been robbed from those who oppress them. Don’t mistreat foreigners, orphans, or widows, and don’t oppress them. Don’t kill innocent people in this place.
