Is he a vessel wherein there is no pleasure? Therefore are they cast out, he and his seed, and are cast into a land [Babylon] which they know not?” “Thus says the Lord, Write this man childless, a man that shall not prosper in his days: for no man of his seed shall prosper, sitting upon the throne of David, and ruling any more in Judah.”
