Isaiah 22:12-14

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹²Therefore in that day the Lord ^[a]God of hosts called you to ^(A)weeping, to wailing,
To ^(B)shaving the head and to wearing sackcloth.
¹³Instead, there is ^(C)gaiety and gladness,
Killing of cattle and slaughtering of sheep,
Eating of meat and drinking of wine:
“^(D)Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we may die.”
¹⁴But the Lord of hosts revealed Himself ^[b]to me,
“Surely this ^(E)iniquity ^(F)shall not be ^[c]forgiven you
^(G)Until you die,” says the Lord ^[d]God of hosts.
