13 Therefore thus says the Lord God:

“Behold, My servants shall eat,
But you shall be hungry;
Behold, My servants shall drink,
But you shall be thirsty;
Behold, My servants shall rejoice,
But you shall be ashamed;
14 Behold, My servants shall sing for joy of heart,
But you shall cry for sorrow of heart,
And (A)wail for [a]grief of spirit.
15 You shall leave your name (B)as a curse to (C)My chosen;
For the Lord God will slay you,
And (D)call His servants by another name;
16 (E)So that he who blesses himself in the earth
Shall bless himself in the God of truth;
And (F)he who swears in the earth
Shall swear by the God of truth;
Because the former troubles are forgotten,
And because they are hidden from My eyes.
