12 And there will be lyre and harp,
    tambourine and flute,
    and wine at their feasts,
but they do not look at the deeds[a] of Yahweh,
    and they do not see the work of his hands.
13 Therefore my people will go into exile without knowledge,
and their[b] nobles[c] will be men of hunger,
and their[d] multitude is parched with thirst.
14 Therefore Sheol has enlarged its throat,
    and it has opened wide its mouth without limit,
and her[e] nobles[f] will go down, and her multitude,
    her tumult and those who revel in her.
