4. How terrible for you who sprawl on ivory bedsand lounge on your couches,eating the meat of tender lambs from the flockand of choice calves fattened in the stall.
5. You sing trivial songs to the sound of the harpand fancy yourselves to be great musicians like David.
6. You drink wine by the bowlfuland perfume yourselves with fragrant lotions.You care nothing about the ruin of your nation.
7. Therefore, you will be the first to be led away as captives.Suddenly, all your parties will end.
8. The Sovereign lord has sworn by his own name, and this is what he, the lord God of Heaven’s Armies, says: “I despise the arrogance of Israel,and I hate their fortresses.I will give this cityand everything in it to their enemies.”
