Context
Jeconiah Will Be Permanently Exiled
22:24 The Lord says , “As surely as I am the living God, you, Jeconiah , king of Judah , son of Jehoiakim , will not be the earthly representative of my authority . Indeed, I will take that right away from you.
22:25 I will hand you over to those who want to take your life and of whom you are afraid . I will hand you over to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon and his Babylonian soldiers .
22:26 I will force you and your mother who gave you birth into exile. You will be exiled to a country where neither of you were born , and you will both die there .
22:27 You will never come back to this land to which you will long to return !”
22:28 This man , Jeconiah , will be like a broken pot someone threw away . He will be like a clay vessel that no one wants . Why will he and his children be forced into exile ? Why will they be thrown out into a country they know nothing about?
22:29 O land of Judah, land of Judah, land of Judah! Listen to what the Lord has to say!
22:30 The Lord says , “Enroll this man in the register as though he were childless . Enroll him as a man who will not enjoy success during his lifetime . For none of his sons will succeed in occupying the throne of David or ever succeed in ruling over Judah .”
