Isaiah 16:9-10
Therefore I will weep with the weeping of Jazer for the vine of Sibmah; I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh: for upon thy summer fruits and upon thy harvest the battle shout is fallen.And gladness is taken away, and joy out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither joyful noise: no treader shall tread out wine in the presses; I have made the vintage shout to cease.

Isaiah 24:7-12
The new wine mourneth, the vine languisheth, all the merry- hearted do sigh.The mirth of tabrets ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp ceaseth.They shall not drink wine with a song; strong drink shall be bitter to them that drink it.The waste city is broken down; every house is shut up, that no man may come in.There is a crying in the streets because of the wine; all joy is darkened, the mirth of the land is gone.In the city is left desolation, and the gate is smitten with destruction.
-
Isaiah 32:9-14
Rise up, ye women that are at ease, and hear my voice; ye careless daughters, give ear unto my speech.For days beyond a year shall ye be troubled, ye careless women; for the vintage shall fail, the ingathering shall not come.Tremble, ye women that are at ease; be troubled, ye careless ones; strip you, and make you bare, and gird sackcloth upon your loins.They shall smite upon the breasts for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine.Upon the land of my people shall come up thorns and briers; yea, upon all the houses of joy in the joyous city.For the palace shall be forsaken; the populous city shall be deserted; the hill and the watch- tower shall be for dens for ever, a joy of wild asses, a pasture of flocks;

Jeremiah 25:9-10
behold, I will send and take all the families of the north, saith Jehovah, and I will send unto Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants thereof, and against all these nations round about; and I will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and perpetual desolations.Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the lamp.
-
Joel 1:12-13
The vine is withered, and the fig- tree languisheth; the pomegranate- tree, the palm- tree also, and the apple- tree, even all the trees of the field are withered: for joy is withered away from the sons of men.Gird yourselves with sackcloth, and lament, ye priests; wail, ye ministers of the altar; come, lie all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: for the meal- offering and the drink- offering are withholden from the house of your God.
-
Revelation 18:22-23
And the voice of harpers and minstrels and flute- players and trumpeters shall be heard no more at all in thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever craft, shall be found any more at all in thee; and the voice of a mill shall be heard no more at all in thee;and the light of a lamp shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the princes of the earth; for with thy sorcery were all the nations deceived.
