Back to passage

Come, let's go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another's speech."

and they made their lives bitter with hard service, in mortar and in brick, and in all kinds of service in the field, all their service, in which they ruthlessly made them serve.

"You shall no longer give the people straw to make brick, as before. Let them go and gather straw for themselves.

They encourage themselves in evil plans. They talk about laying snares secretly. They say, "Who will see them?"

I said in my heart, "Come now, I will test you with mirth: therefore enjoy pleasure;" and behold, this also was vanity.

"The bricks have fallen, but we will build with cut stone. The sycamore fig trees have been cut down, but we will put cedars in their place."

a people who provoke me to my face continually, sacrificing in gardens, and burning incense on bricks;

but exhort one another day by day, so long as it is called "today;" lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow let's go into this city, and spend a year there, trade, and make a profit."
