12 I will destine you to the sword,
    and all of you shall bow down to the slaughter;
because, when I called, you did not answer,
    when I spoke, you did not listen,
but you did what was evil in my sight,
    and chose what I did not delight in.
13 Therefore thus says the Lord God:
My servants shall eat,
    but you shall be hungry;
my servants shall drink,
    but you shall be thirsty;
my servants shall rejoice,
    but you shall be put to shame;
14 my servants shall sing for gladness of heart,
    but you shall cry out for pain of heart,
    and shall wail for anguish of spirit.

    I spoke but you did not listen.(D)
You did evil in my sight

“My servants will eat,(F)
    but you will go hungry;(G)
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.
