10 (A)For ten acres[a] of vineyard shall yield but one bath,
    and a (B)homer of seed shall yield but an ephah.”[b]
11 Woe to those who (C)rise early in the morning,
    that they may run after strong drink,
who tarry late into the evening
    as wine inflames them!
12 (D)They have lyre and harp,
    tambourine and flute and wine at their feasts,
(E)but they do not regard the deeds of the Lord,
    or see the work of his hands.
