Jeremiah 22:2 in Context — Jeremiah 22

1 Assim diz o SENHOR: Desce à casa do rei de Judá, e fala ali esta palavra,

2 E dize: Ouve a palavra do SENHOR, ó rei de Judá, que te sentas sobre o trono de Davi; tu, teus servos, e teu povo, que entrais por estas portas.

3 Assim diz o SENHOR: Fazei juízo e justiça, e livrai a vítima de roubo da mão do opressor, e não oprimais, nem façais violência contra o estrangeiro, o órfão, ou à viúva, nem derrameis sangue inocente neste lugar.

4 Porque se verdadeiramente cumprirdes esta palavra, os reis que se sentam em lugar de Davi sobre seu trono entrarão montados sobre carruagens e sobre cavalos pelas portas desta casa; eles, e seus servos, e seu povo.
