Woes for the Wicked

Woe to those who (A)attach house to house and join field to field,
Until there is no more room,
And you alone are a landowner in the midst of the land!
In my ears the Lord of armies has sworn, “(B)Many houses shall certainly become (C)desolate,
Even great and fine ones, without occupants.
10 For (D)ten acres of vineyard will yield only one [a]bath of wine,
And a [b](E)homer of seed will yield only an [c]ephah of grain.”
