¹³ and behold, joy and gladness, killing oxen and killing sheep, eating flesh and drinking wine: let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we shall die.

¹² Come you, [say they], I will get wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and tomorrow shall be as this day, [a day] great beyond measure.

³² If I fought with animals at Ephesus for human purposes, what does it profit me? If the dead are not raised, then "let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die."

²⁶ As it happened in the days of Noah, even so will it be also in the days of the Son of Man.

²⁷ They ate, they drank, they married, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.

²⁸ Likewise, even as it happened in the days of Lot: they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built;

²⁹ but in the day that Lot went out from Sodom, it rained fire and sulfur from the sky, and destroyed them all.

¹² The harp, lyre, tambourine, and flute, with wine, are at their feasts; But they don't regard the work of Yahweh, Neither have they considered the operation of his hands.

²² Woe to those who are mighty to drink wine, And champions at mixing strong drink;

⁴ My heart flutters, horror has frightened me; the twilight that I desired has been turned into trembling to me.

⁵ They prepare the table, they set the watch, they eat, they drink: rise up, you princes, anoint the shield.

⁷ Even these reel with wine, and stagger with strong drink; the priest and the prophet reel with strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they stagger with strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.

⁸ For all tables are full of vomit [and] filthiness, [so that there is] no place [clean].

³ Those who put far away the evil day, And cause the seat of violence to come near;

⁴ Who lie on beds of ivory, And stretch themselves on their couches, And eat the lambs out of the flock, And the calves out of the midst of the stall;

⁵ Who strum on the strings of a harp; Who invent for themselves instruments of music, like David;

⁶ Who drink wine in bowls, And anoint themselves with the best oils; But they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.

⁷ Therefore they will now go captive with the first who go captive; And the feasting and lounging will end.

⁵ You have lived delicately on the earth, and taken your pleasure. You have nourished your hearts as in a day of slaughter.
