Jeremiah 22:30 in Multiple Translations
This is what the LORD says: “Enroll this man as childless, a man who will not prosper in his lifetime. None of his descendants will prosper to sit on the throne of David or to rule again in Judah.”
Thus saith the LORD, Write ye 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.
Thus saith Jehovah, Write ye this man childless, a man that shall not prosper in his days; for no more shall a man of his seed prosper, sitting upon the throne of David, and ruling in Judah.
The Lord has said, Let this man be recorded as having no children, a man who will not do well in all his life: for no man of his seed will do well, seated on the seat of the kingdom of David and ruling again in Judah.
This is what the Lord says: Put this man down as having no children. He's a man who won't ever be successful in his whole life. None of his children will ever be successful either. None of them will sit on David's throne or be king in Judah.
Thus saith the Lord, Write this man destitute of children, a man that shall not prosper in his dayes: for there shall be no man of his seede that shall prosper and sit vpon the throne of Dauid, or beare rule any more in Iudah.
Thus said Jehovah: Write ye this man childless, A man — he doth not prosper in his days, For none of his seed doth prosper, Sitting on the throne of David, And ruling again in Judah!
The LORD says, “Record this man as childless, a man who will not prosper in his days; for no more will a man of his offspring prosper, sitting on David’s throne and ruling in Judah.”
Thus saith the LORD, Write ye 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.
Thus saith the Lord: Write this man barren, a man that shall not prosper in his days: for there shall not be a man of his seed that shall sit upon the throne of David, and have power any more in Juda.
This is what Yahweh says: “In the record about the kings of Judah, write down that it will be as though this man Jehoiachin had no children, and that he has not been successful during his life, because none of his children/descendants will ever become king to rule over the people of Judah.”

Context — A Warning to Coniah
28Is this man Coniah a despised and shattered pot, a jar that no one wants? Why are he and his descendants hurled out and cast into a land they do not know?
29O land, land, land, hear the word of the LORD!
30This is what the LORD says: “Enroll this man as childless, a man who will not prosper in his lifetime. None of his descendants will prosper to sit on the throne of David or to rule again in Judah.”

Jeremiah 22:30 Summary
This verse is saying that Coniah, a king of Judah, will not have any children who will succeed him or rule on the throne of David. This is because of his disobedience and rebellion against God (as seen in Jeremiah 21:12). In simple terms, when we disobey God, we can't expect to have success or prosperity in our lives (Proverbs 10:22). Instead, we should strive to live a life of obedience and faithfulness, trusting in God's sovereignty and provision (Psalm 37:3-7).

Gill's Exposition on Jeremiah 22:30
Thus saith the Lord, write ye this man childless,.... That is, Coniah, or Jeconiah; who though he had children in the captivity, yet they died in it, or however never succeeded him in the throne.
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Jeremiah 22:30
O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the LORD. O earth! earth! earth! ... Write ye this man childless. Jeconiah was not actually without offspring (cf.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Jeremiah 22:30
The word translated childless is but thrice read in holy writ, and by various interpreters translated barren, not increasing, empty, full of sorrow, wanting children, &c. It is thought to be interpreted by the next words, no man of his seed shall prosper, sitting upon the throne of David, and ruling any more in Judah; for there are seven of his sons named ,18. So that he is said to be childless, either because all hies children died before their father, or (which is most probable) because he had no child that sat upon the throne, or ever had any ruler’ s place in Judah, but only some that lived in a mean condition in captivity, amongst whom Salathiel is named, , as a progenitor of Christ.
Trapp's Commentary on Jeremiah 22:30
Jeremiah 22:30 Thus saith the LORD, Write ye 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.Ver. 30. Write ye this man childless] As to succession in the royal dignity, as well as to success in his reign. The Septuagint render it, A man abdicated or proscribed. This God would have to be written - that is, to be put upon public record for the use of posterity. Our chronicles tell us of John Dudley, that great Duke of Northumberland, in King Edward VI’ s days - who endeavoured by all means to engrand his posterity, reaching at the crown also, which cost him his head - that though he had six sons, all men, all married, yet none of them left any issue behind them. "Be wise now, therefore, O ye kings; serve the Lord with fear." Ariri - i.e., orbus vel solus, sicut in deserto myrica. - Fuller.
Ellicott's Commentary on Jeremiah 22:30
(30) Write ye this man childless.—The meaning of the prediction, as explained by the latter clause of the verse, was fulfilled in Jeconiah’s being the last kingly representative of the house of David, his uncle Zedekiah, who succeeded him, perishing before him (Jeremiah 52:31). In him the sceptre departed, and not even Zerubbabel sat upon the throne of Judah. Whether he died actually childless is less certain. In 1 Chronicles 3:17 Assir (possibly, however, the name should be translated “Jeconiah the prisoner”) appears as his son, and as the father of Salathiel, or Shealtiel; and in Matthew 1:12 we find “Jechonias begat Salathiel.” In these genealogies, however, adoption or succession, or a Levirate marriage so constantly takes the place of parentage, that nothing certain can be inferred from these data, and St. Luke (Luke 3:27) places Salathiel among the descendants of Nathan, as though the line of Solomon became extinct in Jeconiah, and was replaced by the collateral branch of the house of David (see Note on Luke 3:23). The command, “write ye this man childless,” is apparently addressed to the “scribes who kept the register of the royal genealogies (Ezekiel 13:9; Psalms 69:28-29). They were told how, without waiting for his death, they were to enter Coniah’s name in that register.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Jeremiah 22:30
Verse 30. Write ye this man childless] Though he had seven sons, 1 Chronicles 3:17, yet having no successor, he is to be entered on the genealogical tables as one without children, for none of his posterity ever sat on the throne of David.
Cambridge Bible on Jeremiah 22:30
30. Write ye] For the word in the sense of enter in a register of citizens cp. Isaiah 4:3; Psalms 87:6. childless] In 1 Chronicles 3:17, etc. he appears to have had children, and Shealtiel (Matthew 1:12) is reckoned as his son. Shealtiel was, however, descended from David through his son Nathan (Luke 3:27-31) and not through the line of the kings (Solomon, Rehoboam, etc.), and thus was only counted to Jehoiachin (“Jechoniah” of Matthew 1:12) according to the legal not the natural line. It was thus at any rate true that no child of Jehoiachin succeeded to the throne.
Barnes' Notes on Jeremiah 22:30
Childless - No child to sit on David’s throne. See 1 Chronicles 3:17 note. Jeconiah was the last king of David’s line.
Whedon's Commentary on Jeremiah 22:30
30. Childless — As one with whom his stock becomes extinct — who has no posterity. This may be as a man, or as a king; but the latter sense seems most strictly relevant.
