MKJV(i)
3 The land shall be completely emptied, and utterly stripped; for Jehovah has spoken this Word.
4 The earth mourns and languishes; the world droops and languishes; the proud people of the earth droop.
5 And the land is defiled under its people; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, and have broken the everlasting covenant.
6 Therefore the curse has devoured the earth, and they who dwell in it are deserted; therefore the people of the earth are burned, and few men left.
7 The new wine mourns, the vine droops, all the merry-hearted sigh.
8 The gladness of tambourines ceases, the noise of those who rejoice ends; the joy of the harp ceases.
9 They shall not drink wine with a song; strong drink shall be bitter to those who drink it.
10 The city of shame is broken down; every house is shut up so that no one may come in.
11 A crying for wine is in the streets; all joy is darkened, the gladness in the land has gone.
12 In the city is left desolation, and the gate is stricken with ruin.
