13 So this is what the Lord God says:
“My servants will eat,
    but you evil people will be hungry.
My servants will drink,
    but you will be thirsty.
My servants will be happy,
    but you will suffer shame.
14 My servants will shout for joy,

    and then he will call his servants by a new name.
