 Jeremiah 22, verse 18-19

Source: Bible New International Version

¹⁸ Therefore this is what the Lord says about Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah:

“They will not mourn for him:     ‘Alas, my brother! Alas, my sister!’ They will not mourn for him:     ‘Alas, my master! Alas, his splendor!’ ¹⁹ He will have the burial of a donkey—     dragged away and thrown     outside the gates of Jerusalem.”

18اِسی لِئے خُداوند یہُوؔیقِیم شاہِ یہُوداؔہ بِن یوسیاؔہ کی بابت یُوں فرماتا ہے کہ

اُس پر ہائے میرے بھائی! یا ہائے بہن! کہہ کر

ماتم نہیں کریں گے۔

اُس کے لِئے ہائے آقا! یا ہائے مالِک! کہہ کر

نَوحہ نہیں کریں گے۔

19اُس کا دفن گدھے کا سا ہو گا۔

اُس کو گھسِیٹ کر یروشلیِم کے پھاٹکوں کے باہر

پھینک دیں گے۔

My point of view about above verses

God told what it means to know him - it means to do right and just - defend the cause of poor and needy - then all will went well with you - If we know God it means we should do right 

God said do what is right and just so that all went well with you, defend the cause of poor and needy – This means to know me – don’t put your eyes and heart on dishonest gain and shedding innocent blood and on oppression and extortion. God said woe to such people who build their palace by unrighteousness

This is what God said about Jehoiakim son of king of Judah, they will not mourn for him, he will have a burial of donkey – just dragged away and thrown outside the gate of Jerusalem

May God give us wisdom to understand Him through His Word as He speaks with us through this word and prophets - and apply it in our lives to have a blissful life on earth
