11 And ye made for yourselves a (pool of) water between the two walls, further inward than the old pool ; and ye looked not to him who made it from the beginning, and ye saw not him that

12 And the Lord of Hosts called it in that day weeping, and beating of the breast, and shaving of the head, and girding with

13 But they on their part made merriment and exultation, slaying oxen and slaughtering sheep, so as to eat flesh and drink wine, saying, Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.

16 What dost thou here, and what hast thou to do here, that thou hast. hewn for thyself here a monument, and made for thyself a monument on high, and graven an habitation for thyself in a rock?

17 Behold now, the Lord of Hosts will cast out and will root out a man, and will take away thy robe, and thy crown of glory, 18 And shall hurl thee into a land, great without measure, and there shalt thou die; and shall turn thy fine chariot to disgrace, and the house of thy ruler to be trodden down,

22 And I will give the glory of David unto him, and he shall rule, and there shall be none that gainsayeth him ; [and I will lay the key of the house of David upon his shoulder, and he shall open, and there shall be none that shall shut; and he shall shut, and there shall be none that openeth]

24 And upon him shall every one trust, that is honourable in his father's house, from small to great, and they shall be upon him

25 In that day. Thus saith the Lord of Hosts: The man that is firmly fixed in a sure place shall be shaken, and shall fall, and the glory that is upon him shall be taken away, for the Lord hath spoken it.
