Isaiah 5:7-11
Isaiah 5:7
For the vineyard of the Lord of armies is the house of Israel, And the people of Judah are His delightful plant. So He waited for justice, but behold, there was bloodshed; For righteousness, but behold, a cry for help. Woes for the Wicked
Isaiah 5:8
Woe to those who attach house to house and join field to field, Until there is no more room, And you alone are a landowner in the midst of the land!
Isaiah 5:9
In my ears the Lord of armies has sworn, “Many houses shall certainly become desolate, Even great and fine ones, without occupants.
Isaiah 5:10
“For ten acres of vineyard will yield only one bath of wine, And a homer of seed will yield only an ephah of grain.”
Isaiah 5:11
Woe to those who rise early in the morning so that they may pursue intoxicating drink, Who stay up late in the evening so that wine may inflame them!
