12 but he will die in the place where they deported him, never seeing this land again.”

A Message concerning Jehoiakim

13 Woe for the one who builds his palace
through unrighteousness,(A)
his upstairs rooms through injustice,
who makes his neighbor serve without pay
and will not give him his wages,(B)
14 who says, “I will build myself a massive palace,
with spacious upstairs rooms.”
He will cut windows[a] in it,
and it will be paneled with cedar(C)
and painted bright red.
