(A)The wine mourns,
    the vine languishes,
    all the merry-hearted sigh.
(B)The mirth of the tambourines is stilled,
    the noise of the jubilant has ceased,
    the mirth of the lyre is stilled.
No more do they drink wine (C)with singing;
    strong drink is bitter to those who drink it.
10 (D)The wasted city is broken down;
    (E)every house is shut up so that none can enter.
11 (F)There is an outcry in the streets for lack of wine;
    (G)all joy has grown dark;
    the gladness of the earth is banished.
12 Desolation is left in the city;
    the gates are battered into ruins.

22 and (A)the sound of harpists and musicians, of flute players and trumpeters,
    will be heard in you no more,
and a craftsman of any craft
    will be found in you no more,
and (B)the sound of the mill
    will be heard in you no more,
23 and the light of a lamp
    will shine in you no more,
and (C)the voice of bridegroom and bride
    will be heard in you no more,
for (D)your merchants were the great ones of the earth,
    and all nations were deceived (E)by your sorcery.
