Isaiah 22:12-14

EasyEnglish Bible

¹² At that time, the Lord Almighty told you to be very sad and weep. He told you to cut all the hair off your heads and to wear rough clothes.

¹³ But instead, you are happy and you dance! You kill cows and sheep for a feast! You eat lots of meat and you drink lots of wine. You say, ‘We will have a big feast today, because tomorrow we will be dead!’

¹⁴ But the Lord Almighty has told me this: ‘I will never forgive this sin of my people for as long as they live.’

That is what the Lord, the Almighty Lord has said.
