8 The Lord proclaims:As new wine is found in the grape cluster,and someone says, "Don’t destroy it, for there is a blessing in it,"so I will do for the sake of my servantsand not destroy everything:
9 I will bring out offspring from Jacob,and from Judah, heirs to my mountains.My chosen ones will take possession;my servants will dwell there.
10 Sharon will become a pasture for sheep,and the Achor Valley a resting place for cattle,for my people who seek me.
11 But you who abandon the Lord, who forget my holy mountain,who set a table for a god of good fortune,and fill cups of mixed wine for a god of fate:
12 I will offer you to the sword.You will all bow down for slaughter,because I called and you didn’t answer;I spoke and you wouldn’t hear.You did what I considered evil,and chose what I didn’t want.
13 Therefore, the Lord God says:Look, my servants will eat, but you will hunger.My servants will drink, but you will thirst.My servants will rejoice, but you will be ashamed.
14 My servants will sing with contented hearts,but you will cry out from heartache;with broken spirits you will wail.
