Isaiah 16:7-10

Christian Standard Bible

⁷ Therefore let Moab wail;
let every one of them wail for Moab.
You who are completely devastated, mourn
for the raisin cakes^(A) of Kir-hareseth.^(B)
8 For Heshbon’s terraced vineyards
and the grapevines of Sibmah have withered.
The rulers of the nations
have trampled its choice vines
that reached as far as Jazer^(C)
and spread to the desert.
Their shoots spread out
and reached the sea.^(D)
9 So I join with Jazer
to weep for the vines of Sibmah;
I drench Heshbon and Elealeh with my tears.
Triumphant shouts have fallen silent^[a]
over your summer fruit and your harvest.
¹⁰ Joy and rejoicing^(E) have been removed from the orchard;
no one is singing or shouting for joy in the vineyards.^(F)
No one tramples grapes^[b] in the winepresses.
I have put an end to the shouting.
