Woe to the majestic crown of Ephraim’s drunkards, and to the fading flower of its beautiful splendor, which is on the summit above the rich valley. Woe to those overcome with wine.

Instead, you have exalted yourself against the Lord of heaven. The vessels from His house were brought to you, and as you and your nobles, wives, and concubines drank wine from them, you praised the gods made of silver and gold, bronze, iron, wood, and stone, which do not see or hear or understand. But you have not glorified the God who holds your life-breath in His hand and who controls the whole course of your life.

Woe to him who gives his neighbors drink, pouring out your wrath and even making them drunk, in order to look at their nakedness!You will be filled with disgrace instead of glory. You also— drink, and expose your uncircumcision! The cup in the Lord’s right hand will come around to you, and utter disgrace will cover your glory.

Woe to those who are heroes at drinking wine, who are fearless at mixing beer,who acquit the guilty for a bribe and deprive the innocent of justice.

Who has woe? Who has sorrow? Who has conflicts? Who has complaints? Who has wounds for no reason? Who has red eyes?Those who linger over wine, those who go looking for mixed wine.Don’t gaze at wine because it is red, when it gleams in the cup and goes down smoothly.In the end it bites like a snake and stings like a viper.Your eyes will see strange things, and you will say absurd things.You’ll be like someone sleeping out at sea or lying down on the top of a ship’s mast.“ They struck me, but I feel no pain! They beat me, but I didn’t know it! When will I wake up? I’ll look for another drink.”
