Weep bitterly for him bwho goes away,
For he shall return no more,
Nor see his native country.
Message to the Sons of Josiah
And his1 chambers by injustice,
bWho uses his neighbor’s service without wages
And gives him nothing for his work,
And cut out windows for it,
Paneling it with cedar
And painting it with vermilion.’
Did not your father eat and drink,
And do justice and righteousness?
Then ait was well with him.
Then it was well.
Was not this knowing Me?” says the Lord.
For shedding innocent blood,
And practicing oppression and violence.”
a“They shall not lament for him,
Saying, b‘Alas, my brother!’ or ‘Alas, my sister!’
They shall not lament for him,
Saying, ‘Alas, master!’ or ‘Alas, his glory!’
