Jeremiah 22:18-20
International Standard Version
18 Therefore, this is what the Lord says about Josiah’s son Jehoiakim, king of Judah,
“They won’t lament for him with these words:[a]
‘How terrible, my brother,
How terrible, my sister!’
They won’t lament for him with these words:[b]
‘How terrible, lord,
How terrible, your[c] majesty!’
19 He will receive[d] a donkey’s burial,
dragged out and thrown outside the gates of Jerusalem.”
An Oracle against Jerusalem
20 Go up to Lebanon and cry out,
to Bashan and lift up your voice.
Cry out from Abarim, for all your lovers[e]
have been crushed.
