Isaiah 24:8-10
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
8 Stilled are the cheerful timbrels,
ended the shouts of the jubilant,
stilled the cheerful harp.(A)
9 They no longer drink wine and sing;
strong brew is bitter to those who drink it.(B)
10 Broken down is the city of chaos,[a]
every house is shut against entry.(C)
