12 But I decide your fate, and I will punish you with my sword.
    You will all be killed.
This is because I called you, but you refused to answer.
    I spoke to you, but you wouldn’t listen.
You did the things I said were evil.
    You chose to do things that displease me.”

13 So the Lord God said these things:
“My servants will eat.
    But you evil people will be hungry.
My servants will drink.
    But you evil people will be thirsty.
My servants will be happy.
    But you evil people will be shamed.
14 My servants will shout for joy
    because of the goodness of their hearts.
But you evil people will cry,
    because you will be sad.
    You will cry loudly because your spirits will be broken.

“My servants will eat,(F)

my servants will drink,(H)
    but you will go thirsty;(I)
my servants will rejoice,(J)
    but you will be put to shame.(K)
14 My servants will sing(L)
    out of the joy of their hearts,
but you will cry out(M)
    from anguish of heart
    and wail in brokenness of spirit.
