Jeremiah 22:22-24
World English Bible
22 The wind will feed all your shepherds,
and your lovers will go into captivity.
Surely then you will be ashamed
and confounded for all your wickedness.
23 Inhabitant of Lebanon,
who makes your nest in the cedars,
how greatly to be pitied you will be when pangs come on you,
the pain as of a woman in travail!
24 “As I live,” says Yahweh, “though Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet on my right hand, I would still pluck you from there.

Jeremiah 22:22-24
New International Version
22 The wind(A) will drive all your shepherds(B) away,
and your allies(C) will go into exile.
Then you will be ashamed and disgraced(D)
because of all your wickedness.
23 You who live in ‘Lebanon,[a](E)’
who are nestled in cedar buildings,
how you will groan when pangs come upon you,
pain(F) like that of a woman in labor!
24 “As surely as I live,” declares the Lord, “even if you, Jehoiachin[b](G) son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, were a signet ring(H) on my right hand, I would still pull you off.
