In context

8 And many nations will pass by this city and ask one another, ‘Why has the LORD done such a thing to this great city?’

9 Then people will reply, ‘Because they have forsaken the covenant of the LORD their God and have worshiped and served other gods.’”

10 Do not weep for the dead king; do not mourn his loss. Weep bitterly for the one who is exiled, for he will never return to see his native land.

11 For this is what the LORD says concerning Shallum son of Josiah, king of Judah, who succeeded his father Josiah but has gone forth from this place: “He will never return,

12 but he will die in the place to which he was exiled; he will never see this land again.”
