Isaiah 5:9-11
Living Bible

9 But the Lord Almighty has sworn your awful fate—with my own ears I heard him say, “Many a beautiful home will lie deserted, their owners killed or gone. 10 An acre of vineyard will not produce a gallon of juice! Ten bushels of seed will yield a one-bushel crop!”

11 Woe to you who get up early in the morning to go on long drinking bouts that last till late at night—woe to you drunken bums.

Isaiah 5:9-11
New International Version

9 The Lord Almighty(A) has declared in my hearing:(B)

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

11 Woe(E) 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.(F)
