11 Woe to those who rise early in the morning that they may pursue strong drink, Who stay up late in the evening that wine may inflame them! | |
12 Their banquets are accompanied by lyre and harp, by tambourine and flute, and by wine; But they do not pay attention to the deeds of the LORD, Nor do they consider the work of His hands. | |
13 Therefore My people go into exile for their lack of knowledge; Andi Lit their glory are men of faminetheir honorable men are famished, And their multitude is parched with thirst. | |
14 Therefore Sheol has enlarged itsj Or appetitethroat and opened its mouth without measure; Andk Lit herJerusalem’s splendor, her multitude, her din of revelry and the jubilant within her, descend into it. | |
15 So the common man will be humbled and the man of importance abased, The eyes of the proud also will be abased. | |
