Isaiah 28:1

[Now follows a section with six woes, see Isa. 28:1; 29:1, 15; 30:1; 31:1; 33:1. The last two chapters (34-35) are thematically related to the message that began in chapter 28. Just as the first two sections of the book (1-12 and 13-27) end with victory and joy, this section ends in the same way.]

Woe to the proud crown of Ephraim's drunkard,
his glorious beauty is a fading flower
on the head of the fertile valley [the city of Samaria in the northern kingdom]
with those who are struck by wine.
