New International Version

Isaiah 24:7-11 New International Version (NIV)

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

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

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

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

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