I myself have commanded my consecrated ones,
have summoned my warriors, my proudly exulting ones,
to execute my anger.
Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,
and before you were born I consecrated you;
I appointed you a prophet to the nations.
For seven days shall they make atonement for the altar and cleanse it, and so consecrate it.
This shall be for the consecrated priests, the descendants* of Zadok, who kept my charge, who did not go astray when the people of Israel went astray, as the Levites did.
Like grapes in the wilderness,
I found Israel.
Like the first fruit on the fig tree,
in its first season,
I saw your ancestors.
But they came to Baal-peor,
and consecrated themselves to a thing of shame,
and became detestable like the thing they loved.
And I raised up some of your children to be prophets
and some of your youths to be nazirites.*
Is it not indeed so, O people of Israel?
says the Lord.
But you made the nazirites* drink wine,
and commanded the prophets,
saying, You shall not prophesy.
Be silent before the Lord God!
For the day of the Lord is at hand;
the Lord has prepared a sacrifice,
he has consecrated his guests.
