9 Be stunned and amazed,

blind yourselves and be sightless;

be drunk, but not from wine,

stagger, but not from beer.

9 Stay yourselves, and wonder;

Cry ye out, and cry:

They are drunken, but not with wine;

They stagger, but not with strong drink.

9 Are you amazed and incredulous?

Don’t you believe it?

Then go ahead and be blind.

You are stupid, but not from wine!

You stagger, but not from liquor!

9 Pause and wonder!

Blind yourselves and be blind!

They are drunk, but not with wine;

They stagger, but not with intoxicating drink.

9 Be surprised and amazed.

Blind yourselves so that you cannot see.

Become drunk, but not from wine.

Trip and fall, but not from beer.

9 Tarry ye and wonder; take your pleasure and be blind: they are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink.

9 Be astounded and astonished, blind yourselves and be blind! They are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink.

9 If you confuse yourselves, you will be confused. 

If you blind yourselves, you will be blinded. 

You are drunk, but not from wine. 

You stagger, but not from liquor. 

9 Stop and be astonished;

blind yourselves and be blind!

They are drunk, but not with wine;

they stagger, but not with beer.

9 Stupefy yourselves and be in a stupor,

blind yourselves and be blind!

Be drunk, but not from wine;

stagger, but not from strong drink!

9 Be astonished and be amazed!

Blind yourselves and be blinded!

They are drunk but not from wine;

they stagger but not from strong drink.

9 People of Jerusalem, be shocked and amazed.

Make yourselves blind so you can’t see anything.

Get drunk, but not from wine.

Be unsteady on your feet, but not because of beer.

9 Be delayed and wait,

Blind yourselves and be blind;

They become drunk, but not with wine,

They stagger, but not with strong drink.
