Isaiah 5:8-9 Israel's Sin and Judgment

8 Woes and Judgments
Woe to you who add house to house
and join field to field
till no space is left
and you live alone in the land.

9 The Lord Almighty has declared in my hearing:
“Surely the great houses will become desolate,
the fine mansions left without occupants.
