17 “Jehoiakim, the only thing on your mind
    is to get rich by cheating others.
You would even kill people who are not guilty
    of doing anything wrong.
You would mistreat them.
    You would take everything they own.”

18 So the Lord speaks about King Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah. He says,

“His people will not mourn for him.
    They will not say,
    ‘My poor brother! My poor sister!’
They will not mourn for him.
    They will not say,
    ‘My poor master! How sad that his glory is gone!’
19 In fact, he will be buried like a donkey.
    His body will be dragged away and thrown
    outside the gates of Jerusalem.”
