Jeremiah 22:1-5

1 Thus says the Lord: “Go down to the house of the king of Judah and speak there this word, 2 and say, ^a‘Hear the word of the Lord, O king of Judah, who sits on the throne of David, you, and your servants, and your people who enter these gates. 3 Thus says the Lord: ^bDo justice and righteousness, and deliver from the hand of the oppressor him who has been robbed. And ^cdo no wrong or violence ^dto the resident alien, ^ethe fatherless, and the widow, nor ^fshed innocent blood in this place. 4 For if you will indeed obey this word, ^gthen 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 ^hswear by myself, declares the Lord, that ⁱthis house shall become a desolation.
