Isaiah 28:6-8
Amplified Bible
6
A spirit of justice for him who sits in judgment [administering the law],
A strength to those who drive back the battle at the gate.
7
But even these reel with wine and stagger from strong drink:
The priest and the prophet reel with strong drink;
They are confused by wine, they stagger from strong drink;
They reel while seeing visions,
They stagger when pronouncing judgment.
8
For all the tables are full of filthy vomit, so that there is no place [that is clean.]
Isaiah 28:6-8
New International Version
6 He will be a spirit of justice(A)
to the one who sits in judgment,(B)
a source of strength
to those who turn back the battle(C) at the gate.
7 And these also stagger(D) from wine(E)
and reel(F) from beer:
Priests(G) and prophets(H) stagger from beer
and are befuddled with wine;
they reel from beer,
they stagger when seeing visions,(I)
they stumble when rendering decisions.
8 All the tables are covered with vomit(J)
and there is not a spot without filth.
