^13 (A)Gird yourselves with sackcloth
And lament, O priests;
^(B)Wail, O ministers of the altar!
Come, ^(C)spend the night in sackcloth,
O ministers of my God;
For the grain offering and the drink offering
Are withheld from the house of your God.

¹⁷ Let the priests, the ministers of Yahweh,
Weep ^(A)between the porch and the altar,
And let them say, “^(B)Pity Your people, O Yahweh,
And do not make Your inheritance a ^(C)reproach,
A byword among the nations.
Why should they among the peoples say,
‘^(D)Where is their God?’”
