11 For as the girdle cleaves to the loins of a man, so I have caused to cleave unto me the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah, saith the Lord; that they might be unto me for a people and for fame, and for a praise, and for honour; but they did not hear.
12 Therefore thou shalt speak unto them this word: Thus hath the Lord God of Israel said, Every bottle shall be filled with wine; and they shall say unto thee, Do we not certainly know that every bottle shall be filled with wine?
13 Then shalt thou say unto them, Thus hath the Lord said, Behold, I fill all the inhabitants of this land with drunkenness, even the kings that sit upon David’s throne and the priests and the prophets and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
14 And I will break them one against another, even the fathers with the sons together, saith the Lord; I will not pity nor spare nor have mercy to not destroy them.
15 Hear ye and give ear; do not be proud: for the Lord has spoken.
16 Give glory to the Lord your God before he causes darkness and before your feet stumble in mountains of darkness, and while ye look for light, he turns it into the shadow of death and makes it gross darkness.
17 But if ye will not hear this, my soul shall weep in secret because of your pride; and weeping bitterly, my eyes shall be undone in tears because the Lord’s flock was carried away captive.
