Jeremiah 22:3-5

English Standard Version

³ Thus says the Lord: ^(A)Do justice and righteousness, and deliver from the hand of the oppressor him who has been robbed. And ^(B)do no wrong or violence ^(C)to the resident alien, ^(D)the fatherless, and the widow, nor ^(E)shed innocent blood in this place. ⁴ For if you will indeed obey this word, ^(F)then there shall enter the gates of this house kings who sit on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they and their servants and their people. ⁵ But if you will not obey these words, I ^(G)swear by myself, declares the Lord, that ^(H)this house shall become a desolation.
