Isaiah 56:10-12

Expanded Bible

¹⁰ ·The leaders who are to guard the people [^LHis watchmen; 62:6] are blind;
    they ·don’t know what they are doing [lack knowledge; are ignorant].
All of them are like ·quiet [mute; or muzzled] dogs
    that ·don’t know how to [cannot] bark.
They lie down and dream
    and love to sleep.
¹¹ They are like ·hungry [greedy; ravenous] dogs
    that are never satisfied.
They are like shepherds
    who ·don’t know what they are doing [lack understanding; are ignorant; Ezek. 34:2–3].
They all have gone their own way;
    ·all they want to do is satisfy themselves [each seeks their own gain/profit].
¹² They say, “Come, let’s drink some wine;
    let’s ·drink all the [fill ourselves with] ·beer [^Tstrong drink; ^Calcoholic beverage made from grain] we want.
And tomorrow ·we will do this again [will be like today],
    ·or, maybe we will have an even better time [even better; or it will be very great indeed; ^Lvery much abundantly great].”
