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.
12. Solitude is what remains in the city, and calamity will overwhelm its gates.
13. For so shall it be in the midst of the earth, in the midst of the people: it is as if the few remaining olives are being shaken from the olive tree, and it is like a few clusters of grapes, when the grape harvest has already ended.
14. These few shall lift up their voice and give praise. When the Lord will have been glorified, they will make a joyful noise from the sea.
15. Because of this, glorify the Lord in doctrine: the name of the Lord, the God of Israel, in the islands of the sea.
16. From the ends of the earth, we have heard the praises of the glory of the Just One. And I said: "My secret is for myself! My secret is for myself! Woe to me! Those who would betray us have betrayed us, and they have betrayed us with the betrayal of transgression."
17. Dread, and the pit, and the snare are over you, O inhabitant of the earth!
18. And this shall be: whoever will flee from the voice of dread will fall into the pit. And whoever will extricate himself from the pit will be caught in the snare. For the floodgates from above have been opened, and the foundations of the earth will be shaken.
