6 and (A)a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgement,
and (B)strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
7 (C)These also reel with wine
and (D)stagger with strong drink;
the priest and (E)the prophet reel with strong drink,
they are swallowed by[a] wine,
they stagger with strong drink,
they reel in vision,
they stumble in giving judgement.
8 For all tables are full of filthy vomit,
with no space left.

Isaiah 28:6-8
King James Version
6 And for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for strength to them that turn the battle to the gate.
7 But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.
8 For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.
