They will not pour out wine offerings to Adonai;
they will not be pleasing to him.
Their sacrifices will be for them like mourners’ food —
everyone eating it will be polluted.
For their food will be merely to satisfy their appetite;
it will not come into the house of Adonai.
What will you do at a designated time,
on a day which is a festival for Adonai?
For suppose they escape the destruction —
Egypt will round them up,
Memphis will bury them.
And their precious treasures of silver?
Nettles will possess them,
thorns will be in their tents.

This food will be for themselves;
    it will not come into the temple of the Lord.(E)

What will you do(F) on the day of your appointed festivals,(G)
    on the feast days of the Lord?
Even if they escape from destruction,
    Egypt will gather them,(H)
    and Memphis(I) will bury them.(J)
Their treasures of silver(K) will be taken over by briers,
    and thorns(L) will overrun their tents.
