Jeremiah 22:9-11

9 And the answer will be, “Because they abandoned the covenant with the Lord their God and worshipped and served other gods.”

11 This is what the Lord says about Shallum son of Judah’s King Josiah, who succeeded his father Josiah as king but who is now gone from this place: He will never return!
