33 You will be filled with drunkenness and sorrow,
The cup of horror and desolation,
The cup of your sister Samaria.
34 You shall (A)drink and drain it,
You shall break its [a]shards,
And tear at your own breasts;
For I have spoken,’
Says the Lord God.

35 “Therefore thus says the Lord God:

‘Because you (B)have forgotten Me and (C)cast Me behind your back,
Therefore you shall bear the penalty
Of your lewdness and your harlotry.’ ”
