Isaiah 5:7-17

7For the vineyard of Jehovah of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah the plant of his delight: and he looked for justice, and behold, blood-shedding; for righteousness, and behold, a cry.

8Woe unto them that add house to house, that join field to field, until there is no more room, and that ye dwell yourselves alone in the midst of the land!

9In mine ears Jehovah of hosts [hath said], Many houses shall assuredly become a desolation, great and excellent ones, without inhabitant.

10Yea, ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, and a homer of seed shall yield an ephah.

11Woe unto them that, rising early in the morning, run after strong drink; that linger till twilight, [till] wine inflameth them!

12And harp and lyre, tambour and flute, and wine are in their banquets; but they regard not the work of Jehovah, nor do they see the operation of his hands.

13Therefore my people are led away captive from lack of knowledge, and their nobility die of famine, and their multitude are parched with thirst.

14Therefore doth Sheol enlarge its desire, and open its mouth without measure; and her splendour shall descend [into it], and her multitude, and her tumult, and [all] that is joyful within her.

15And the mean man shall be bowed down, and the great man brought low, and the eyes of the lofty shall be brought low;

16and Jehovah of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and the holy 1God hallowed in righteousness.

17And the lambs shall feed as on their pasture, and the waste places of the fat ones shall strangers eat.
