11 
You also made a reservoir between the two walls
For the waters of the [a]Old Pool,
But you did not look to its Maker,
Nor did you recognize Him who planned it long ago.

To shaving the head and to wearing sackcloth [in humiliation].

Killing of oxen and slaughtering of sheep,
Eating meat and drinking wine, saying,
“Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we may die.”
