“Woe to those (A)who lie on (B)beds of ivory
    (C)and stretch themselves out on their couches,
and eat lambs from the flock
    (D)and calves from the midst of the stall,
(E)who sing idle songs to the sound of the harp
    and like David (F)invent for themselves instruments of music,
(G)who drink wine in bowls
    and (H)anoint themselves with the finest oils,
    but are not grieved over the ruin of Joseph!
(I)Therefore they shall now be the first of those who go into exile,
    and the revelry of those who stretch themselves out shall pass away.”
