Isaiah 5:10-12
GOD’S WORD Translation
10 A ten-acre vineyard will produce only six gallons of wine,
and two quarts of seed will produce only four quarts of grain.”
11 How horrible it will be for those
who get up early to look for a drink,
who sit up late until they are drunk from wine.
12 At their feasts there are lyres and harps,
tambourines and flutes, and wine.
Yet, they don’t pay attention to what the Lord is doing
or see what his hands have done.
Isaiah 5:10-12
New International Version
10 A ten-acre vineyard will produce only a bath[a] of wine;
a homer[b] of seed will yield only an ephah[c] of grain.”(A)
11 Woe(B) to those who rise early in the morning
to run after their drinks,
who stay up late at night
till they are inflamed with wine.(C)
12 They have harps and lyres at their banquets,
pipes(D) and timbrels(E) and wine,
but they have no regard(F) for the deeds of the Lord,
no respect for the work of his hands.(G)
