9 I heard the Lord of Hosts say:Indeed, many houses will become desolate,grand and lovely ones without inhabitants.
10 For a ten-acre vineyard will yieldonly six gallons, and 10 bushels of seed will yieldonly one bushel.
11 Woe to those who rise early in the morningin pursuit of beer, who linger into the evening,inflamed by wine.
12 At their feasts they have lyre, harp,tambourine, flute, and wine.They do not perceive the Lord’s actions, and they do not see the work of His hands.
13 Therefore My people will go into exilebecause they lack knowledge; her dignitaries are starving,and her masses are parched with thirst.
14 Therefore Sheol enlarges its throatand opens wide its enormous jaws, and down go Zion’s dignitaries, her masses,her crowds, and those who carouse in her!
15 Humanity is brought low, man is humbled,and haughty eyes are humbled.
