The earth is polluted by its people.
    They haven’t obeyed the laws of the Lord.
They haven’t done what he told them to do.
    They’ve broken the covenant that will last forever.
So the Lord will send a curse on the earth.
    Its people will pay for what they’ve done.
They will be burned up.
    Very few of them will be left.
The vines and fresh wine will dry up completely.
    Those who used to have a good time will groan.

    and very few are left.
The new wine dries up(F) and the vine withers;(G)
    all the merrymakers groan.(H)

The new wine mourneth, the vine languisheth, all the merryhearted do sigh.
