Jeremiah 36:28-30

The Voice

Eternal One: ²⁸ Take another scroll and write down all the words that were on the first one King Jehoiakim destroyed in the fire. ²⁹ As for Jehoiakim king of Judah, this is what I want you to say: “You burned this scroll and asked, ‘Why have you written that the king of Babylon is coming to destroy this land and will leave it a lifeless wasteland?’” ³⁰ That is why I, the Eternal now declare this about Jehoiakim, king of Judah: His reign will soon end, and none of his descendants will sit upon the throne of David. His dead body will be tossed out and exposed to the heat of the day and the frost of the night.
