לֹ֥א יָדְע֖וּ וְלֹ֣א יָבִ֑ינוּ כִּ֣י טַ֤ח מֵֽרְאוֹת֙ עֵֽינֵיהֶ֔ם מֵהַשְׂכִּ֖יל לִבֹּתָֽם׃

Duties of the Heart
Alas to this confusion! How so universal it is! And to this drunkenness, how strong it is!, as the verse says: "for their eyes are shrouded, that they cannot see, and their hearts, that they cannot understand" (Yeshaya 44:18), and "ye that are drunken, but not with wine, that stagger, but not with strong drink" (Yeshaya 29:9).
