3 The earth shalbe cleane emptied, and vtterly spoiled: for the Lord hath spoken this worde.
4 The earth lamenteth and fadeth away: the world is feeble and decaied: the proude people of the earth are weakened.
5 The earth also deceiueth, because of the inhabitantes thereof: for they transgressed the lawes: they changed the ordinances, and brake the euerlasting couenant.
6 Therefore hath the curse deuoured the earth, and the inhabitantes thereof are desolate. Wherefore the inhabitants of the land are burned vp, and fewe men are left.
7 The wine faileth, the vine hath no might: all that were of merie heart, doe mourne.
8 The mirth of tabrets ceaseth: the noyse of them that reioyce, endeth: the ioye of the harpe ceaseth.
9 They shall not drinke wine with mirth: strong drinke shall be bitter to them that drinke it.
10 The citie of vanitie is broken downe: euery house is shut vp, that no man may come in.
11 There is a crying for wine in the streetes: al ioy is darkened: the mirth of the world is gone away.
12 In the citie is left desolation, and the gate is smitten with destruction.
