Jeremiah 22:2-4

EasyEnglish Bible

² “King of Judah, descendant of King David, listen to this message from the Lord. Your officers and the people of your palace must listen too. ³ The Lord says: You must do things that are right and fair. Punish those who rob other people. Help the people that they have hurt. Do not be cruel to foreigners who are living among you. Do not cheat them. Do not hurt or cheat widows, or children who have no family. Stop killing people who have not done anything wrong. ⁴ If you are careful to obey these commands, David's descendants will continue to rule as kings in this city. They will ride on horses and on chariots to come in through the city's gates. Their officers and their people will come with them.
