10. “For ten acres of vineyard yield one bath, and a ḥomer of seed yields one ĕphah.”
11. Woe to those who rise early in the morning pursuing strong drink, who stay up late at night – wine inflames them!
12. And the lyre and the harp, the tambourine and flute, and wine are in their feasts; but they do not regard the deeds of יהוה, nor see the work of His hands.
13. Therefore my people have gone into exile, because they have no knowledge. And their esteemed men are starved, and their crowd dried up with thirst.
14. Therefore the grave has made itself wide and opened its mouth beyond measure. Their splendour and their crowd and their uproar, and he who is exulting within her, shall go down into it.
15. And man is bowed down, and mortal man humbled, and the eyes of the proud are humbled.
16. But יהוה of hosts is exalted in judgment, and the set-apart Ěl is set-apart in righteousness.
17. And the lambs shall feed in their pasture, and strangers shall eat in the waste places of the fat ones.
18. Woe to those who draw crookedness with cords of falsehood, and sin as with wagon ropes,
19. who are saying, “Let Him hurry! Let Him hasten His work, so that we see it! And let the counsel of the Set-apart One of Yisra’ĕl draw near and come, so that we know.”
20. Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
21. Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes, and clever in their own sight!
