Isaiah 5:11-14
Legacy Standard Bible
11 Woe to those who rise early in the morning that they may pursue (A)strong drink,
Who stay up late in the evening that wine may inflame them!
12 And their banquets are accompanied by lyre and (B)harp, by tambourine and flute, and by wine;
But they (C)do not look upon the deeds of Yahweh,
Nor do they see the work of His hands.
13 Therefore My people go into exile for their (D)lack of knowledge;
And [a]their (E)honorable men are famished,
And their multitude is parched with thirst.
14 Therefore (F)Sheol has enlarged its [b]throat and opened its mouth without limit;
And [c]Jerusalem’s majesty, her multitude, her rumbling, and the exultant within her, descend into it.

Isaiah 5:11-14
Lexham English Bible
11 Ah! Those who rise early in the morning,
they pursue strong drink.
Those who linger in the evening,
wine inflames them.
12 And there will be lyre and harp,
tambourine and flute,
and wine at their feasts,
but they do not look at the deeds[a] of Yahweh,
and they do not see the work of his hands.
13 Therefore my people will go into exile without knowledge,
and their[b] nobles[c] will be men of hunger,
and their[d] multitude is parched with thirst.
14 Therefore Sheol has enlarged its throat,
and it has opened wide its mouth without limit,
and her[e] nobles[f] will go down, and her multitude,
her tumult and those who revel in her.

11 Woe(A) to those who rise early in the morning
to run after their drinks,
who stay up late at night
till they are inflamed with wine.(B)

pipes(C) and timbrels(D) and wine,
but they have no regard(E) for the deeds of the Lord,
no respect for the work of his hands.(F)
13 Therefore my people will go into exile(G)
for lack of understanding;(H)
those of high rank(I) will die of hunger
and the common people will be parched with thirst.(J)

opening wide its mouth;(L)
into it will descend their nobles and masses
with all their brawlers and revelers.(M)
