²⁵ And Moses saw that the people were out of control, for Aaron had let them loose to their shame before their haters:

¹⁰ And he said, Hearing your voice in the garden I was full of fear, because I was without clothing: and I kept myself from your eyes.

¹⁷ For you say, I have wealth, and have got together goods and land, and have need of nothing; and you are not conscious of your sad and unhappy condition, that you are poor and blind and without clothing.

¹⁸ If you are wise you will get from me gold tested by fire, so that you may have true wealth; and white robes to put on, so that your shame may not be seen; and oil for your eyes, so that you may see.

²¹ What fruit had you at that time in the things which are now a shame to you? for the end of such things is death.

¹¹ Be uncovered and go away, you who are living in Shaphir: the one living in Zaanan has not come out of her town; Beth-ezel is taken away from its base, even from its resting-place.

³ For fear that I may take away her robe from her, making her uncovered as in the day of her birth; making her like a waste place and a dry land, causing her death through need of water.

² And a number of those who are sleeping in the dust of the earth will come out of their sleep, some to eternal life and some to eternal shame.

⁶³ So that, at the memory of these things, you may be at a loss, never opening your mouth because of your shame; when you have my forgiveness for all you have done, says the Lord.

³ The shame of your unclothed condition will be seen by all: I will give punishment without mercy,

¹⁹ For the Lord made Judah low, because of Ahaz, king of Israel; for he had given up all self-control in Judah, sinning greatly against the Lord.

²⁰ And the Lord, in his wrath, would have put Aaron to death: and I made prayer for Aaron at the same time.

⁴ Hearing this bad news the people were full of grief, and no one put on his ornaments.

⁵ And the Lord said to Moses, Say to the children of Israel, You are a stiff-necked people: if I come among you, even for a minute, I will send destruction on you; so take off all your ornaments, so that I may see what to do with you.

⁶ So the children of Israel took off their ornaments at Mount Horeb, and did not put them on again.

¹⁵ (See, I come as a thief. Happy is he who is watching and keeps his robes, so that he may not go unclothed, and his shame be seen.)
