28 Woe to the proud crown of the ^(A)drunkards of ^(B)Ephraim,
And to the fading flower of its glorious beauty,
Which is at the head of the ^[a]fertile valley
Of those who are ^[b]overcome with wine!
² Behold, the Lord has a strong and ^(C)courageous agent;
As a storm of ^(D)hail, a tempest of destruction,
Like a storm of ^(E)mighty overflowing waters,
He has set it down to the earth with His hand.
³ The proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim is ^(F)trodden under foot.
