^19 (A)He has neither son nor posterity among his people,
Nor any remaining in his dwellings.

³⁰ Thus says the Lord:
‘Write this man down as ^(A)childless,
A man who shall not prosper in his days;
For ^(B)none of his descendants shall prosper,
Sitting on the throne of David,
And ruling anymore in Judah.’ ”

²¹ Prepare slaughter for his children
^(A)Because of the iniquity of their fathers,
Lest they rise up and possess the land,
And fill the face of the world with cities.”

²² “For I will rise up against them,” says the Lord of hosts,
“And cut off from Babylon ^(B)the name and ^(C)remnant,
^(D)And offspring and posterity,” says the Lord.

⁸ Woe to those who ^[a]join ^(A)house to house;
They add field to field,
Till there is no place
Where they may dwell alone in the midst of the land!
^9 (B)In my hearing the Lord of hosts said,
“Truly, many houses shall be desolate,
Great and beautiful ones, without inhabitant.

^13 (A)Let his ^[a]posterity be cut off,
And in the generation following let their ^(B)name be blotted out.

^14 (A)If his children are multiplied, it is for the sword;
And his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread.
¹⁵ Those who survive him shall be buried in death,
And ^(B)their^[a] widows shall not weep,

²⁶ Total darkness is reserved for his treasures.
^(A)An unfanned fire will consume him;
It shall go ill with him who is left in his tent.
²⁷ The heavens will reveal his iniquity,
And the earth will rise up against him.
²⁸ The increase of his house will depart,
And his goods will flow away in the day of His ^(B)wrath.

⁴ If ^(A)your sons have sinned against Him,
He has cast them away ^[a]for their transgression.
