Isaiah 5:10-12
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
10 For ten acres of vineyard shall yield but one bath,
and a homer of seed shall yield a mere ephah.[a]
11 Ah, you who rise early in the morning
in pursuit of strong drink,
who linger in the evening
to be inflamed by wine,
12 whose feasts consist of lyre and harp,
tambourine and flute and wine,
but who do not regard the deeds of the Lord,
or see the work of his hands!
