11 This is a word of the Eternal for Shallum (son of Josiah), who succeeded his father as king of Judah and went from this place into exile:

Eternal One: He will never return, 12 and he will die in that land of captivity, never to see this place again.

13     Woe to the one[a] who builds his palace on the proceeds of unrighteousness,
        who adds upper rooms on the gains of injustice,
    Who forces his own people to labor for nothing,
        who refuses to pay them for all their hard work.
