Isaiah 5:9-11
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
9 The Lord of hosts has sworn in my hearing:
Surely many houses shall be desolate,
large and beautiful houses, without inhabitant.(A)
10 For ten acres of vineyard shall yield but one bath,
and a homer of seed shall yield a mere ephah.[a](B)
11 Woe to those who rise early in the morning
in pursuit of strong drink,
who linger in the evening
to be inflamed by wine,(C)
Footnotes
- 5.10 The Heb bath, homer, and ephah are measures of quantity
