Isaiah 5:9-11

New International Reader's Version

⁹I heard the Lord who rules over all announce a message. He said,

“You can be sure that the great houses will become empty.
The fine homes will be left with no one living in them.
¹⁰A ten-acre vineyard will produce only six gallons of wine.
360 pounds of seeds will produce only 36 pounds of grain.”

¹¹How terrible it will be for those who get up early in the morning
to start drinking!
How terrible for those who stay up late at night
until they are drunk with wine!
