Oh, may that night be barren! May no joyful shout come into it!

愿那夜没有生育，其间也没有欢乐的声音。

看哪，愿那夜没有生育，其间也没有欢乐的声音。

看哪，愿那夜没有生育，其间也没有欢乐的声音。

愿那夜无人生育，毫无快乐之声。

愿那夜没有生育，也没有欢乐的声音。

願那夜沒有生育，其間也沒有歡樂的聲音。

看哪，願那夜沒有生育，其間也沒有歡樂的聲音。

看哪，願那夜沒有生育，其間也沒有歡樂的聲音。

願那夜無人生育，毫無快樂之聲。

願那夜沒有生育，也沒有歡樂的聲音。

唉，願那夜沒有孕育；也沒有歡樂聲進入其間。

願是夕孤寂、不聞歡聲、

何如是夕不誕嬰孩、不聞懽聲。

是夜不如虛度、無歡樂之聲聞於其間、

May that night be barren; may no shout of joy be heard in it.

May no children ever have been born on that night. May no shout of joy be heard in it.

Behold, let that night be barren; let no joyful cry enter it.

Let that night be childless. Let it have no joy.

Yes, may that night be barren; may no joyful shout be heard in it.

Behold, may that night be barren; May no joyful shout enter it.

Lo, let that night be barren; Let no joyful voice come therein.

Yes, may that night be barren; may no joyful shout be heard in it.

Lo, let that night be solitary, let no joyful voice come therein.

Indeed, let that night be barren; let no shout of joy penetrate it!

Behold, let that night be barren. Let no joyful voice come therein.

It will never be inhabited, Nor will it be settled from generation to generation; Nor will the Arabian pitch tents there, Nor will the shepherds make their sheepfolds there.But wild beasts of the desert will lie there, And their houses will be full of owls; Ostriches will dwell there, And wild goats will caper there.The hyenas will howl in their citadels, And jackals in their pleasant palaces. Her time is near to come, And her days will not be prolonged.”

The sound of harpists, musicians, flutists, and trumpeters shall not be heard in you anymore. No craftsman of any craft shall be found in you anymore, and the sound of a millstone shall not be heard in you anymore.The light of a lamp shall not shine in you anymore, and the voice of bridegroom and bride shall not be heard in you anymore. For your merchants were the great men of the earth, for by your sorcery all the nations were deceived.

The mirth of the tambourine ceases, The noise of the jubilant ends, The joy of the harp ceases.

Then I will cause to cease from the cities of Judah and from the streets of Jerusalem the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride. For the land shall be desolate.
