Isa 28:1-4 | NASB1995 | STEP | Woe to the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim , And to the fading flower of its glorious beauty , Which is at the head of the fertile valley Of those who are overcome with wine !

Isaiah 28:1-4

1 Woe to the proud crown of the ^adrunkards of ^bEphraim,
And to the fading flower of its glorious beauty,
Which is at the head of the ^{▼▼ Lit valley of fatness}fertile valley
Of those who are ^{▼▼ Lit smitten}overcome with wine!
2 Behold, the Lord has a strong and ^emighty agent;
As a storm of ^fhail, a tempest of destruction,
Like a storm of ^gmighty overflowing waters,
He has cast it down to the earth with His hand.
3 The proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim is ^htrodden under foot.
4 And the fading flower of its glorious beauty,
Which is at the head of the ^{▼▼ Lit valley of fatness}fertile valley,
Will be like the ^jfirst-ripe fig prior to summer,
Which ^{▼▼ Lit the one seeing sees}one sees,
And ^{▼▼ Lit while it is yet}as soon as it is in his ^{▼▼ Lit palm}hand,
He swallows it.
