Jeremiah 22:15-17

Jeremiah 22:15-17 ICB

“Does having a lot of cedar in your house make you a great king? Your father was satisfied to have food and drink. He did what was right and fair. So everything went well for him. He helped those who were poor and needy. So everything went well for him. That’s what it means to know God,” says the Lord. “But your eyes only look for what you can get dishonestly. You are always thinking about getting more for yourself. You are even willing to kill innocent people to get it. You are making it hard for people. You even steal things from them.”
