79 In mine ears, saith the Lord of hosts, of a truth many houses shall be desolate, and great and fair cities without inhabitant.
80 Yea, ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, and the seed of a homer shall yield an ephah.
81 Wo unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, and wine inflame them!
82 And the harp, and the viol, the tabret and pipe, and wine are in their feasts; but they regard not the works of the Lord, neither consider the operation of his hands.
83 Therefore, my people are gone into captivity, because they have no knowledge: and their honorable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst.
84 Therefore, hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it.
85 And the mean man shall be brought down, and the mighty man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled:
86 But the Lord of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and God that is holy shall be sanctified in righteousness.
87 Then shall the lambs feed after their manner, and the waste places of the fat ones shall strangers eat.
88 Wo unto them that draw iniquity with cords of vanity, and sin as it were with a cart-rope;
89 That say, Let him make speed, hasten his work, that we may see it: and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw nigh and come, that we may know it.
