and my flute for the sound of weeping.
Isaiah 24:7-11
24:7 The new wine dries up,
the vines shrivel up,
all those who like to celebrate groan.
24:8 The happy sound of the tambourines stops,
the revelry of those who celebrate comes to a halt,
the happy sound of the harp ceases.
24:9 They no longer sing and drink wine;
the beer tastes bitter to those who drink it.
24:10 The ruined town is shattered;
all of the houses are shut up tight.
24:11 They howl in the streets because of what happened to the wine;
all joy turns to sorrow;
celebrations disappear from the earth.

16:9 For I, the
Lord God of Israel who rules over all, tell you what will happen.
I will put an end to the sounds of joy and gladness, to the glad celebration of brides and grooms in this land. You and the rest of the people will live to see this happen.’”
Jeremiah 25:10
25:10 I will put an end to the sounds of joy and gladness, to the glad celebration of brides and grooms in these lands.
I will put an end to the sound of people grinding meal. I will put an end to lamps shining in their houses.

the noise of your songs; the sound of your harps will be heard no more.

18:22 And the sound of the harpists, musicians,
flute players, and trumpeters
will never be heard in you again.
No craftsman who practices any trade
will ever be found in you again;
the noise of a mill will never be heard in you again.
