4 That lie upon beds of ivory, And stretch themselves upon their couches, And eat the lambs out of the flock, And the calves out of the midst of the stall; 5 That thrum on the psaltery, That devise for themselves instruments of music, like David; 6 That drink wine in bowls, And anoint themselves with the chief ointments; But they are not grieved for the hurt of Joseph. 7 Therefore now shall they go captive at the head of them that go captive, And the revelry of them that stretched themselves shall pass away. Amos 6:4-7, JPS Tanakh 1917. Public domain.
