11 Ah! Those who rise early in the morning,
    they pursue strong drink.
Those who linger in the evening,
    wine inflames them.
12 And there will be lyre and harp,
    tambourine and flute,
    and wine at their feasts,
but they do not look at the deeds[a] of Yahweh,

and their[b] nobles[c] will be men of hunger,
and their[d] multitude is parched with thirst.
