Jeremiah 7:34

34 And I'll empty both smiles and laughter from the villages of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem. No wedding songs, no holiday sounds. Dead silence.

Jeremiah 7:34 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 7:34

Then will I cause to cease from the cities of Judah, and from
the streets of Jerusalem
Signifying that the devastation should not only be in and about Jerusalem, but should reach all over the land of Judea; since in all cities, towns, and villages, would cease the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness;
upon any account whatever; and, instead of that, mourning, weeping, and lamentation: the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride;
no marrying, and giving in marriage, and so no expressions of joy on such occasions; and consequently no likelihood, at present, of repeopling the city of Jerusalem, and the other cities of Judah: for the land shall be desolate;
without people to dwell in it, and till it. The Septuagint, Syriac, and Arabic versions, read, "the whole land".

Jeremiah 7:34 In-Context

32 "But soon, very soon" - God's Decree! - "the names Topheth and Ben-hinnom will no longer be used. They'll call the place what it is: Murder Meadow. Corpses will be stacked up in Topheth because there's no room left to bury them!

33 Corpses abandoned in the open air, fed on by crows and coyotes, who have the run of the place.

34 And I'll empty both smiles and laughter from the villages of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem. No wedding songs, no holiday sounds. Dead silence.
