7 The vintage has mourned. The vine has languished. All those who were rejoicing in their hearts have groaned.

8 The gladness of the drums has ceased. The sound of rejoicing has quieted. The sweetness of stringed instruments has been silenced.

9 They will not drink wine with a song. The drink will be bitter to those who drink it.

10 The city of vanity has been worn away. Every house has been closed up; no one enters.

11 There will be a clamor for wine in the streets. All rejoicing has been abandoned. The gladness of the earth has been carried away.
