Isaiah 5:11-14
English Standard Version
Isaiah 5:11-14
English Standard Version
11 Woe to those who (A)rise early in the morning,
that they may run after strong drink,
who tarry late into the evening
as wine inflames them!
12 (B)They have lyre and harp,
tambourine and flute and wine at their feasts,
(C)but they do not regard the deeds of the Lord,
or see the work of his hands.
13 Therefore my people go into exile
(D)for lack of knowledge;[a]
their (E)honored men go hungry,[b]
and their multitude is parched with thirst.
14 Therefore Sheol has (F)enlarged its appetite
and opened (G)its mouth beyond measure,
and the nobility of Jerusalem[c] and her multitude will go down,
her revelers and he who (H)exults in her.
