Isaiah 24:7-12

View Full Chapter

7The new wine dries up and the vine withers; all the merrymakers groan.

8The joyful timbrels are stilled, the noise of the revelers has stopped, the joyful harp is silent.

9No longer do they drink wine with a song; the beer is bitter to its drinkers.

10The ruined city lies desolate; the entrance to every house is barred.

11In the streets they cry out for wine; all joy turns to gloom, all joyful sounds are banished from the earth.

12The city is left in ruins, its gate is battered to pieces.
