Isaiah 56:10-12
New International Version
10 Israel’s watchmen(A) are blind,
they all lack knowledge;(B)
they are all mute dogs,
they cannot bark;
they lie around and dream,
they love to sleep.(C)
11 They are dogs with mighty appetites;
they never have enough.
They are shepherds(D) who lack understanding;(E)
they all turn to their own way,(F)
they seek their own gain.(G)

Let us drink our fill of beer!
And tomorrow will be like today,
or even far better.”(I)
