Isaiah 24:8-10
Living Bible
8 The melodious chords of the harp and timbrel are heard no more; the happy days are ended. 9 No more are the joys of wine and song; strong drink turns bitter in the mouth.
10 The city lies in chaos; every home and shop is locked up tight to keep out looters.

8 The mirth (A)of the tambourine ceases,
The noise of the jubilant ends,
The joy of the harp ceases.

Every house is shut up, so that none may go in.
