13. And behold joy and gladness, slaying oxen and killing sheep, eating flesh, and drinking wine while they say, let us eat and drink for tomorrow we shall die.
14. This was revealed in my ears by the Lord of the hosts, That surely this iniquity shall not be purged from you until ye die, saith the Lord GOD of the hosts.
15. Thus saith the Lord GOD of the hosts, Go, get thee unto this treasurer, even unto Shebna, which is over the house, and say,
16. What hast thou here? or whom hast thou here that thou hast hewed thee out a sepulchre here as he that hews himself out a sepulchre on a high place or that graves a habitation for himself in a rock?
17. Behold, the Lord will carry thee away in a hard captivity and will surely cover thy face.
18. He will surely violently turn and toss thee like a ball into a large country, there shalt thou die, and there the chariots of thy glory shall come to an end, the shame of the house of thy Lord.
19. And I will drive thee from thy place, and he shall pull thee down from thy state.
