Isaiah 24:7-12
7 aThe wine mourns,the vine languishes,
all the merry-hearted sigh.
8 bThe mirth of the tambourines is stilled,
the noise of the jubilant has ceased,
the mirth of the lyre is stilled.
9No more do they drink wine cwith singing;
strong drink is bitter to those who drink it.
10 dThe wasted city is broken down;
eevery house is shut up so that none can enter.
11 fThere is an outcry in the streets for lack of wine;
gall joy has grown dark;
the gladness of the earth is banished.
12Desolation is left in the city;
the gates are battered into ruins.
Jeremiah 7:34
34 hAnd I will silence in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, ifor the land shall become a waste.Jeremiah 25:10
10Moreover, jI will banish from them the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, kthe grinding of the millstones and lthe light of the lamp.Ezekiel 26:13
13 mAnd I will stop the music of your songs, and nthe sound of your lyres shall be heard no more.Hosea 2:11
11 oAnd I will put an end to all her mirth,her feasts, her pnew moons, her qSabbaths,
and all her rappointed feasts.
Revelation of John 18:22-23
22and sthe 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 tthe sound of the mill
will be heard in you no more,
23and the light of a lamp
will shine in you no more,
and uthe voice of bridegroom and bride
will be heard in you no more,
for vyour merchants were the great ones of the earth,
and all nations were deceived wby your sorcery.
