8 And many nations will pass by this city; and everyone will say to his neighbor, a‘Why has the Lord done so to this great city?’
9 Then they will answer, a‘Because they have forsaken the covenant of the Lord their God, and worshiped other gods and served them.’ ”
10 Weep not for athe dead, nor bemoan him;
Weep bitterly for him bwho goes away,
For he shall return no more,
Nor see his native country.
Weep bitterly for him bwho goes away,
For he shall return no more,
Nor see his native country.
Message to the Sons of Josiah
11 For thus says the Lord concerning aShallum the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who reigned instead of Josiah his father, bwho went from this place: “He shall not return here anymore,
12 but he shall die in the place where they have led him captive, and shall see this land no more.
