and like David ^jinvent for themselves instruments of music,

3  ^eThe songs of the temple^{1 f}shall become wailings² in that day,”

^g“So many dead bodies!”

“They are thrown everywhere!”

^h“Silence!”

tambourine and flute and wine at their feasts,

^kbut they do not regard the deeds of the Lord,

or see the work of his hands.
