Then will I 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.

The verse 34 is found in chapter 7 of Jeremiah. The desecration of Topheth and the Valley of Hinnom represents the extreme of cultic corruption. Child sacrifices are condemned as something God did not command. The place associated with death and fire becomes a symbol of judgment, and Jerusalem will be transformed from a city of joy into a scene of devastation.

Und ich will in den Städten Juda's und auf den Gassen zu Jerusalem wegnehmen das Geschrei der Freude und Wonne und die Stimme des Bräutigams und der Braut; denn das Land soll wüst sein.
Y haré cesar de las ciudades de Judá, y de la calles de Jerusalem, voz de gozo y voz de alegría, voz de esposo y voz de esposa; porque la tierra será en desolación.
Je ferai cesser dans les villes de Juda et dans les rues de Jérusalem Les cris de réjouissance et les cris d'allégresse, Les chants du fiancé et les chants de la fiancée; Car le pays sera un désert.
Farò eziandio cessare nelle città di Giuda, e nelle piazze di Gerusalemme, la voce d’allegrezza, e la voce di gioia; la voce dello sposo, e la voce della sposa: perciocchè il paese sarà in desolazione
E farei cessar nas cidades de Judá, e nas ruas de Jerusalém, a voz de gozo, e a voz de alegria, a voz de esposo e a voz de esposa; porque a terra se tornará em desolação.
那時,我必止息 猶大 城鎮和 耶路撒冷 街上歡喜和快樂的聲音、新郎和新娘的聲音,因為這地必然荒蕪。」
