Jeremiah 22:15-17

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁵ Are you better than other kings
    because you use more cedar wood to build your palace?
Think about how your father lived.
    He did what was right and fair.
    He had enough to eat and to drink.
So he was happy with a good life.
¹⁶ He did what was right
    for people who were poor and helpless.
So people were happy.
That is how people who know me should live.’
