Isaiah 33:7-9

International Standard Version

⁷ “Listen! Their brave men cry out in the streets;
    the envoys of peace weep bitterly.
⁸ The highways are deserted;
    travelers have quit the road.
The enemy^[a] has broken treaties;
    he despises their witnesses,^[b]
        and respects no one.
⁹ The land mourns and wastes away;
    Lebanon feels ashamed and withers.
Sharon is like a desert;
    Bashan^[c] and Carmel shake off their leaves.”
