Exegesis
The conclusion, heidad {הֵידָד | hēy-dād} ‘vintage shout’ followed by the Hiphil perfect hishbatti {הִשְׁבַּֽתִּי | hiš-ba-tî} ‘I have caused to cease’, delivers a stark closure. The parallelism and repeated negatives underscore the totality of the judgment.
In context — Isaiah 16:10
Joy and gladness have been withdrawn from the fertile plateau; in the vineyards there shall be no singing or shouting; no wine will be trodden in the winepresses; I have brought the vintage shout to an end.
