10 The ruined town is shattered;all of the houses are shut up tight.
11 They howl in the streets because of what happened to the wine;all joy turns to sorrow;celebrations disappear from the earth.
12 The city is left in ruins;the gate is reduced to rubble.
13 This is what will happen throughout the earth,among the nations.It will be like when they beat an olive tree,and just a few olives are left at the end of the harvest.
14 They lift their voices and shout joyfully;they praise the majesty of the Lord in the west.
15 So in the east extol the Lord,along the seacoasts extol the fame of the Lord God of Israel.
16 From the ends of the earth we hear songs – the Just One is majestic.But I say, “I’m wasting away! I’m wasting away! I’m doomed!Deceivers deceive, deceivers thoroughly deceive!”
