12But he shall die in the place whither they have led him captive, and shall see this land no more.Select Jeremiah 22:12

13Woe unto him that buildeth his house by unrighteousness, and his chambers by wrong; that useth his neighbour’s service without wages, and giveth him not for his work;Select Jeremiah 22:13

14That saith, I will build me a wide house and large chambers, and cutteth him out windows; and it is cieled with cedar, and painted with vermilion.Select Jeremiah 22:14

15Shalt thou reign, because thou closest thyself in cedar? did not thy father eat and drink, and do judgment and justice, and then it was well with him?Select Jeremiah 22:15
