Isaiah 5:8-10
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
Social Injustice Denounced
8 Ah, you who join house to house,
who add field to field,
until there is room for no one but you,
and you are left to live alone
in the midst of the land!
9 The Lord of hosts has sworn in my hearing:
Surely many houses shall be desolate,
large and beautiful houses, without inhabitant.
10 For ten acres of vineyard shall yield but one bath,
and a homer of seed shall yield a mere ephah.[a]
Footnotes
- Isaiah 5:10 The Heb bath, homer, and ephah are measures of quantity
