7 For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel,
And the men of Judah are His pleasant plant.
He looked for justice, but behold, oppression;
For righteousness, but behold,1 a cry for help.
And the men of Judah are His pleasant plant.
He looked for justice, but behold, oppression;
For righteousness, but behold,1 a cry for help.
Impending Judgment on Excesses
8 Woe to those who1 join ahouse to house;
They add field to field,
Till there is no place
Where they may dwell alone in the midst of the land!
They add field to field,
Till there is no place
Where they may dwell alone in the midst of the land!
9 aIn my hearing the Lord of hosts said,
“Truly, many houses shall be desolate,
Great and beautiful ones, without inhabitant.
“Truly, many houses shall be desolate,
Great and beautiful ones, without inhabitant.
11 aWoe to those who rise early in the morning,
That they may1 follow intoxicating drink;
Who continue until night, till wine inflames them!
That they may1 follow intoxicating drink;
Who continue until night, till wine inflames them!
