← Jeremiah 22:8	Jeremiah 22:9 (KJV)	Jeremiah 22:10 →
And many nations shall pass by this city, and they shall say every man to his neighbour, Wherefore hath the LORD done thus unto this great city?	Then they shall answer, Because they have forsaken the covenant of the LORD their God, and worshipped other gods, and served them.	Weep ye not for the dead, neither bemoan him: [but] weep sore for him that goeth away: for he shall return no more, nor see his native country.
