10 They will eat but not be satisfied;(A)
they will be promiscuous(B) but not multiply.
For they have abandoned their devotion to the Lord.(C)
11 Promiscuity,(D) wine, and new wine
take away one’s understanding.(E)
12 My people consult their wooden idols,(F)

they act promiscuously(H)
in disobedience to[a] their God.

King James Version
10 For they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit whoredom, and shall not increase: because they have left off to take heed to the Lord.
11 Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart.
12 My people ask counsel at their stocks, and their staff declareth unto them: for the spirit of whoredoms hath caused them to err, and they have gone a whoring from under their God.
