and their children dance.
12 They sing to ^cthe tambourine and ^dthe lyre
and rejoice to the sound of ^ethe pipe.

and in ^gpeace they go down to ^hSheol.
14 They say to God, ⁱ‘Depart from us!
We do not desire the knowledge of your ways.

^aband stretch themselves out on their couches,
and eat lambs from the flock
^acand calves from the midst of the stall,
5 ^adwho sing idle songs to the sound of the harp
and like David ^aeinvent for themselves instruments of music,
6 ^afwho drink wine in bowls
and ^aganoint themselves with the finest oils,
but are not grieved over the ruin of Joseph!
