4 Who are lying down on beds of ivory, And are spread out on their couches, And are eating lambs from the flock, And calves from the midst of the stall, 5 Who are taking part according to the psaltery, Like David they invented for themselves instruments of music; 6 Who are drinking with bowls of wine, And with chief perfumes anoint themselves, And have not been pained for the breach of Joseph. 7 Therefore now they remove at the head of the captives, And turned aside is the mourning-feast of stretched-out ones.
