Isaiah 5:12
Compare all
10 For ten acres of vineyard shall yield one abath,
And a homer of seed shall yield one1 ephah.” 
11 aWoe to those who rise early in the morning,
That they may1 follow intoxicating drink;
Who continue until night, till wine inflames them! 
12 aThe harp and the strings,
The tambourine and flute,
And wine are in their feasts;
But bthey do not regard the work of the Lord,
Nor consider the operation of His hands. 
13 aTherefore my people have gone into captivity,
Because they have no bknowledge;
Their honorable men are famished,
And their multitude dried up with thirst. 
14 Therefore Sheol has enlarged itself
And opened its mouth beyond measure;
Their glory and their multitude and their pomp,
And he who is jubilant, shall descend into it.
15 People shall be brought down,
aEach man shall be humbled,
And the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled. 
16 But the Lord of hosts shall be aexalted in judgment,
And God who is holy shall be hallowed in righteousness.
