Isaiah 5:9-11
New International Version - UK

9 The Lord Almighty has declared in my hearing:

‘Surely the great houses will become desolate,
    the fine mansions left without occupants.
10 A ten-acre[a] vineyard will produce only a bath[b] of wine;
    a homer[c] of seed will yield only an ephah[d] of grain.’

11 Woe 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.
