6You drink wine by the bowlful

but you do not grieve over the ruin of Joseph.

6Who drink wine from sacred bowls

While they anoint themselves with the finest of oils—

Yet they have not grieved over the collapse of Joseph.

6Who drink wine from sacrificial bowls

And anoint themselves with the finest oils [reflecting their unrestrained celebration];

Yet they are not grieved over the ruin of Joseph (Israel). [Gen 49:22, 23]

6You drink wine by the bowlful

and anoint yourselves with the finest oils,

but you fail to grieve

over the ruin of Joseph.

6that drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief oils; but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.

6They drinke wine in bowles, and anoynt themselues with the chiefe ointments, but no man is sory for the affliction of Ioseph.

6who drink wine in bowls,

and anoint themselves with the best oils,

but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.

You use the finest lotions.

But Joseph’s people will soon be destroyed.

And you aren’t even sad about it.

6Who are drinking with bowls of wine, || And anoint themselves [with] chief perfumes, || And have not been pained for the breach of Joseph.
