Isaiah 5:8-14

8WoeH1945 unto them that add houseH1004 to houseH1004, that join fieldH7704 to fieldH7704, until there is no more room, and that ye dwellH3427 yourselves aloneH905 in the midstH7130 of the landH776!

9In mine earsH241 Jehovah of hostsH6635 [hath said], ManyH7227 housesH1004 shall assuredly becomeH1961 a desolationH8047, greatH1419 and excellent ones, without inhabitantH3427.

10Yea, tenH6235 acres of vineyardH3754 shall yield oneH259 bathH1324, and a homer of seedH2233 shall yield an ephahH374.

11WoeH1945 unto them that, risingH7925 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, run after strongH7941 drinkH7941; that linger till twilightH5399, [till] wineH3196 inflameth them!

12And harpH3658 and lyre, tambour and fluteH2485, and wineH3196 are in their banquets; but they regard not the workH4639 of Jehovah, nor do they seeH7200 the operation of his handsH3027.

13ThereforeH3651 my peopleH5971 are led away captive from lack of knowledgeH1847, and their nobility die of famineH7458, and their multitudeH1995 are parched with thirstH6772.

14ThereforeH3651 doth SheolH7585 enlargeH7337 its desireH5315, and openH7337 its mouthH6310 without measure; and her splendour shall descend [into it], and her multitudeH1995, and her tumultH1995, and [all] that is joyful within her.
