Some translations indent each line of poetry to make it easier to read. The ULB does this with the poetry in 22:6-10, 13-28, 28-30.
Special concepts in this chapter
Luxury and oppression
Because the king lived in luxury and oppressed the poor, God was sending him and his mother into captivity unless he repented. The king lacked justice. (See: rc://en/tw/dict/bible/other/oppress, rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/repent and rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/justice)
