27 But to the land to which they desire to return, there they shall not return.
28 “Is this man1 Coniah a despised, broken idol—
aA vessel in which is no pleasure?
Why are they cast out, he and his descendants,
And cast into a land which they do not know?
aA vessel in which is no pleasure?
Why are they cast out, he and his descendants,
And cast into a land which they do not know?
30 Thus says the Lord:
‘Write this man down as achildless,
A man who shall not prosper in his days;
For bnone of his descendants shall prosper,
Sitting on the throne of David,
And ruling anymore in Judah.’ ”
‘Write this man down as achildless,
A man who shall not prosper in his days;
For bnone of his descendants shall prosper,
Sitting on the throne of David,
And ruling anymore in Judah.’ ”
