Jeremiah 22:5-7
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
5 But if you will not heed these words, I swear by myself, says the Lord, that this house shall become a desolation.(A) 6 For thus says the Lord concerning the house of the king of Judah:
You are like Gilead to me,
like the summit of Lebanon,
but I swear that I will make you a desert,
uninhabited cities.(B)
7 I will prepare destroyers against you,
all with their weapons;
they shall cut down your choicest cedars
and cast them into the fire.(C)
