Contextual Overview

1Woe to the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim,And to the fading flower of its glorious beauty,Which is at the head of the fertile valleyOf those who are overcome with wine! 2Behold, the Lord has a strong and courageous agent;As a storm of hail, a tempest of destruction,Like a storm of mighty overflowing waters,He has set it down to the earth with His hand. 3The proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim is trodden under foot. 4And the fading flower of its glorious beauty,Which is at the head of the fertile valley,Will be like the first‑ripe fig prior to summer,Which one sees,And as soon as it is in his hand,He swallows it. 5In that day Yahweh of hosts will become a beautiful crownAnd a glorious diadem to the remnant of His people; 6A spirit of just judgment for him who sits in judgment,A might to those who turn back the onslaught at the gate. 7And these also reel with wine and stagger from strong drink:The priest and the prophet reel with strong drink;They are swallowed up by wine, they stagger from strong drink;They reel while having visions;They totter when rendering a verdict. 8For all the tables are full of filthy vomit, without a single clean place.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim, shall be trodden under feet. Not only cast down with the hand, but trampled upon with the feet; showing their utter destruction, and the contempt with which they should be used; which, with their character, is repeated, to point out their sins, the cause of it, to denote the certainty of it, and that it might be taken notice of.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Isaiah 28:3. The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim - "The proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim"] I read עטרות ataroth, crowns, plural, to agree with the verb תרמסנה teramasnah, "shall be trodden down."
