Isaiah 5:9-11

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁹The Lord of hosts has sworn in my hearing:
Surely many houses shall be desolate,
large and beautiful houses, without inhabitant.^(A)
¹⁰For ten acres of vineyard shall yield but one bath,
and a homer of seed shall yield a mere ephah.^[a]^(B)

¹¹Woe to those who rise early in the morning
in pursuit of strong drink,
who linger in the evening
to be inflamed by wine,^(C)
