Isaiah 5:11 in context
- 9In my ears, Yahweh of Armies says: “Surely many houses will be desolate,
even great and beautiful, unoccupied. - 10For ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath,
and a homer of seed shall yield an ephah.” - 11Woe to those who rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink,
who stay late into the night, until wine inflames them! - 12The harp, lyre, tambourine, and flute, with wine, are at their feasts;
but they don’t respect the work of Yahweh,
neither have they considered the operation of his hands. - 13Therefore my people go into captivity for lack of knowledge.
Their honorable men are famished,
and their multitudes are parched with thirst.
