Isaiah 24:9-11
New Catholic Bible
9 The people drink wine but without any singing;
strong liquor tastes bitter to those who consume it.
10 The city is shattered and in a state of chaos;
every house has its entrance barred.[a]
11 In the streets the people cry out for wine;
no joy can be observed;
happiness seems to have been banished from the land.
