6 What sorrow awaits you who lounge in luxury in Jerusalem, and people go to you for help. 2 But go over to Calneh and look at how they were destroyed. 3 You push away every thought of coming disaster, but your actions only bring the day of judgment closer. 4 How terrible for you who sprawl on ivory beds and of choice calves fattened in the stall. 5 You sing trivial songs to the sound of the harp and fancy yourselves to be great musicians like David. 6 You drink wine by the bowlful 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: and everything in it to their enemies.” 9 (If there are ten men left in one house, they will all die. 10 And when a relative who is responsible to dispose of the dead goes into the house to carry out the bodies, he will ask the last survivor, “Is anyone else with you?” When the person begins to swear, “No, by . . . ,” he will interrupt and say, “Stop! Don’t even mention the name of the LORD.”) 11 When the LORD gives the command, homes both great and small will be smashed to pieces. 12 Can horses gallop over boulders? and the sweet fruit of righteousness into bitterness. 13 And you brag about your conquest of Lo-debar. You boast, “Didn’t we take Karnaim by our own strength?” 14 “O people of Israel, I am about to bring an enemy nation against you,” to the Arabah Valley in the south.”
