Isaiah 5:8-10

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁸ Woe to those who join house to house,
    who add field to field,
until there is no more room,
    and you are made to dwell alone
    in the midst of the land.
⁹ The Lord of hosts has sworn in my hearing:
“Surely many houses shall be desolate,
    large and beautiful houses, without inhabitant.
¹⁰ For ten acres of vineyard shall yield but one bath,
    and a homer of seed shall yield but an ephah.”
