    his upper rooms by injustice,
making his own people work for nothing,
    not paying them for their labor.

    with spacious upper rooms.’
So he makes large windows in it,
    panels it with cedar
    and decorates it in red.
15 “Does it make you a king
    to have more and more cedar?
Did not your father have food and drink?
    He did what was right and just,
    so all went well with him.

    and so all went well.
Is that not what it means to know me?”

    dragged away and thrown
    outside the gates of Jerusalem.”

    for it has caused them to stumble into sin.
