Isaiah 22:11-13
EasyEnglish Bible
Isaiah 22:11-13
EasyEnglish Bible
11 You built a place between the city's walls to store water from the Old Pool. But you did not trust the One who made the city. You did not think about the One who decided to build it a long time ago.
12 At that time, the Lord Almighty told you to be very sad and weep. He told you to cut all the hair off your heads and to wear rough clothes.
13 But instead, you are happy and you dance! You kill cows and sheep for a feast! You eat lots of meat and you drink lots of wine. You say, ‘We will have a big feast today, because tomorrow we will be dead!’

Isaiah 22:11-13
New International Version
11 You built a reservoir between the two walls(A)
for the water of the Old Pool,(B)
but you did not look to the One who made it,
or have regard(C) for the One who planned(D) it long ago.
12 The Lord, the Lord Almighty,
called you on that day(E)
to weep(F) and to wail,
to tear out your hair(G) and put on sackcloth.(H)
13 But see, there is joy and revelry,(I)
slaughtering of cattle and killing of sheep,
eating of meat and drinking of wine!(J)
“Let us eat and drink,” you say,
“for tomorrow we die!”(K)
