Jeremiah 22:15-17

Names of God Bible

¹⁵ Do you think you’re a better king than others
    because you use more cedar?
    Your father ate and drank and did what is fair and right.
    Everything went well for him.
¹⁶ He defended the cause of the poor and needy.
    Everything went well for him.
    Isn’t this what it means to know me?” asks Yahweh.
¹⁷ “But your eyes and your mind are set on nothing but dishonest profits.
    You kill innocent people and violently oppress your people.”
