6. Who drink wine from bowls,and anoint themselves with the best oils,but are not made ill by the collapse of Joseph;
7. Therefore, now they shall be the first to go into exile,and the carousing of those who lounged shall cease.
8. The Lord God has sworn by his very self—an oracle of the Lord, the God of hosts:I abhor the pride of Jacob,I hate his strongholds,and I will hand over the city with everything in it;
9. Should there remain ten peoplein a single house, these shall die.
10. When a relative or one who prepares the body picks up the remainsto carry them out of the house,If he says to someone in the recesses of the house,“Is anyone with you?” and the answer is, “No one,”Then he shall say, “Silence!”for no one must mention the name of the Lord.
11. Indeed, the Lord has given the commandto shatter the great house to bits,and reduce the small house to rubble.
