Jeremiah 22:24-26

New International Reader's Version

²⁴ “King Jehoiachin, you are the son of Jehoiakim,” announces the Lord. “Suppose you were a ring on my right hand. And suppose the ring even had my royal mark on it. Then I would still pull you off my finger. And that is just as sure as I am alive. ²⁵ I will hand you over to those who want to kill you. I will hand you over to people you are afraid of. I will give you to Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon. I will hand you over to his armies. ²⁶ I will throw you out into another country. I will throw your mother out. Neither of you was born in that country. But both of you will die there.
