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.

7 The wine mourns,

the vine languishes,

all the merry-hearted sigh.

8 The mirth of the tambourines is stilled,

the noise of the jubilant has ceased,

the mirth of the lyre is stilled.

9 No more do they drink wine with singing;

strong drink is bitter to those who drink it.

7 The new wine mourneth, the vine languisheth,

All the merryhearted do sigh.

8 The mirth of tabrets ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth,

The joy of the harp ceaseth.

9 They shall not drink wine with a song;

Strong drink shall be bitter to them that drink it.

7 The grapevines waste away,

and there is no new wine.

All the merrymakers sigh and mourn.

8 The cheerful sound of tambourines is stilled;

the happy cries of celebration are heard no more.

The melodious chords of the harp are silent.

9 Gone are the joys of wine and song;

alcoholic drink turns bitter in the mouth.

7 The new wine fails, the vine languishes,

All the merry-hearted sigh.

8 The mirth of the tambourine ceases,

The noise of the jubilant ends,

The joy of the harp ceases.

9 They shall not drink wine with a song;

Strong drink is bitter to those who drink it.

7 The new wine will be bad, and the grapevines will die.

People who were happy will be sad.

8 The happy music of the tambourines will end.

The happy sounds of wild parties will stop.

The joyful music from the harps will end.

9 People will no longer sing while they drink their wine.

The beer will taste bitter to those who drink it.

7 The new wine mourneth, the vine languisheth, all the merry-hearted do sigh. 8 The mirth of tabrets ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp ceaseth. 9 They shall not drink wine with a song; strong drink shall be bitter to them that drink it.

7 The new wine mourneth, the vine languisheth, all that were merry-hearted do sigh; 8 the mirth of tambours ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp ceaseth. 9 They do not drink wine with a song; strong drink is bitter to them that drink it.

7 New wine dries up, and grapevines waste away. 

All happy people groan. 

8 Joyful tambourine music stops. 

Noisy celebrations cease. 

Joyful harp music stops. 

9 People no longer drink wine when they sing. 

Liquor tastes bad to its drinkers. 

7 The new wine mourns;

the vine withers.

All the carousers now groan.

8 The joyful tambourines have ceased.

The noise of the jubilant has stopped.

The joyful lyre has ceased.

9 They no longer sing and drink wine;

beer is bitter to those who drink it.

7 The wine dries up,

the vine languishes,

all the merry-hearted sigh.

8 The mirth of the timbrels is stilled,

the noise of the jubilant has ceased,

the mirth of the lyre is stilled.

9 No longer do they drink wine with singing;

strong drink is bitter to those who drink it.

7 The new wine dries up;

the vine languishes.

All the merry of heart sigh;

8 the joy of the tambourine has stopped.

The noise of the jubilant has ceased;

the joy of the lyre has stopped.

9 They do not drink wine with song;

strong drink is bitter to those who drink it.

7 The vines and fresh wine will dry up completely.

Those who used to have a good time will groan.

8 The happy sounds of tambourines will be gone.

The noise of those who enjoy wild parties will stop.

The joyful music of harps will become silent.

9 People will no longer sing as they drink wine.

Beer will taste bitter to those who drink it.
