you will shudder, you complacent women;

12 (D)Beat your breasts for the pleasant fields,
for the fruitful vine,

9 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.

6 (I)who drink wine in bowls
and (J)anoint themselves with the finest oils,
but are not grieved over the ruin of Joseph!

and the revelry of those who stretch themselves out shall pass away.”
