Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread,
    and your labor for that which does not satisfy?
Hearken diligently to me, and eat what is good,
    and delight yourselves in fatness.
Incline your ear, and come to me;

Behold, I made him a witness to the peoples,
    a leader and commander for the peoples.
