Why have you written on it ... animal from it'?

Jehoiakim uses this question to emphasize that Jeremiah should not have written that the king of Babylon would come and attack. Alternate translation: "You should not have written ... animal from it!" or "You were wrong to write ... animal from it'!" (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion)
