¹³ Instead, there is ^(A)joy and jubilation,
Killing of cattle and slaughtering of sheep,
Eating of meat and drinking of wine:
“^(B)Let’s eat and drink, for tomorrow we may die.”

⁴ Those who lie on beds of ivory,
And lounge around on their ^(A)couches,
And ^(B)eat lambs from the flock,
And calves from the midst of the fattened cattle,
⁵ Who improvise to the sound of the harp,
And like David have ^[a]composed ^(C)songs for themselves,
⁶ Who ^(D)drink wine from sacred bowls
While they anoint themselves with the finest of oils—
Yet they have not ^(E)grieved over the collapse of Joseph.
