Isaiah 56:10-12
Good News Translation
10 He says, “All the leaders, who are supposed to warn my people, are blind! They know nothing. They are like watch dogs that don't bark—they only lie around and dream. How they love to sleep! 11 They are like greedy dogs that never get enough. These leaders have no understanding. They each do as they please and seek their own advantage. 12 ‘Let's get some wine,’ these drunkards say, ‘and drink all we can hold! Tomorrow will be even better than today!’”

Isaiah 56:10-12
New International Version
10 Israel’s watchmen(A) are blind,
they all lack knowledge;(B)
they are all mute dogs,
they cannot bark;
they lie around and dream,
they love to sleep.(C)
11 They are dogs with mighty appetites;
they never have enough.
They are shepherds(D) who lack understanding;(E)
they all turn to their own way,(F)
they seek their own gain.(G)
12 “Come,” each one cries, “let me get wine!(H)
Let us drink our fill of beer!
And tomorrow will be like today,
or even far better.”(I)
