¹² Therefore in that day the Lord ^[a]God of hosts called you to ^(A)weeping, to wailing,
To ^(B)shaving the head and to wearing sackcloth.
¹³ Instead, there is ^(C)gaiety and gladness,
Killing of cattle and slaughtering of sheep,
Eating of meat and drinking of wine:
“^(D)Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we may die.”
¹⁴ But the Lord of hosts revealed Himself ^[b]to me,
“Surely this ^(E)iniquity ^(F)shall not be ^[c]forgiven you
^(G)Until you die,” says the Lord ^[d]God of hosts.

⁴ Those who recline on beds of ivory
And sprawl on their ^(A)couches,
And ^(B)eat lambs from the flock
And calves from the midst of the stall,
⁵ Who improvise to the sound of the harp,
And like David have ^[a]composed ^(C)songs for themselves,
⁶ Who ^(D)drink wine from ^[b]sacrificial bowls
While they anoint themselves with the finest of oils,
Yet they have not ^(E)grieved over the ruin of Joseph.
