1This is the burden against the Valley of Vision: What ails you now, that you have all gone up to the rooftops,

8He has uncovered the defenses of Judah. On that day you looked to the weapons in the House of the Forest.

11You built a reservoir between the walls for the waters of the ancient pool, but you did not look to the One who made it, or consider Him who planned it long ago.
“Ye made also a ditch between the two walls for the water of the old pool, but ye have not looked unto the maker of thereof, neither had respect unto him that fashioned it long ago.”

13But look, there is joy and gladness, butchering of cattle and slaughtering of sheep, eating of meat and drinking of wine: "Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!"
