The Righteous and Wicked Contrasted

13 Therefore, this is what the Lord[a] says:
“See, my servants will eat,
    but you’ll go hungry;
my servants will drink,
    but you’ll go thirsty;
my servants will rejoice,
    but you’ll be put to shame.
14 My servants will sing in gladness[b] of heart,
    but you’ll cry for help[c] from anguish of heart,
        and you’ll howl from brokenness of spirit.
15 You’ll leave your name to my chosen ones as a curse,
    and the Lord God will put you to death permanently.[d]
