Exegesis

The anaphoric repetition of qol {ק֤וֹל | qōl} with sason {שָׂשׂוֹן | śā-śōn}, simchah {שִׂמְחָה | śim-ḥā}, chatan {חָתָן | ḥā-ṯān}, and kalah {כַּלָּה | kăl-lāh} employs parallelism to intensify the total silencing of communal celebration.

In contextJeremiah 16:9

For thus says the LORD of hosts and the God of Israel : Look, I am about to stop in this place—before your eyes and during your days—the voice of joy , the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride.
