• Isaiah 24:7, 8New World Translation

    •  7 The new wine mourns,* the vine withers,+

      And all those cheerful at heart are sighing.+

       8 The joy of the tambourines has ceased;

      The noise of the revelers has ended;

      The happy sound of the harp has ceased.+

  • Jeremiah 7:34New World Translation

    • 34 I will put an end to the sound of exultation and the sound of rejoicing, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride,+ in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, for the land will be reduced to ruins.’”+

  • Revelation 18:23New World Translation

    • 23 No light of a lamp will ever shine in you again, and no voice of a bridegroom and of a bride will ever be heard in you again; for your merchants were the top-ranking men of the earth, and by your spiritistic practices+ all the nations were misled.
