Isaiah 16:8-10

International Standard Version

⁸ For the fields of Heshbon wither,
    as well as the vines of Sibmah.^[a]
The rulers of the nations
have struck down its choicest vines,
which once reached Jazer
and pushed to the desert.
Its shoots spread out
and passed over the sea.”

⁹ “Therefore I weep with the tears of Jazer
    for the vines of Sibmah.
I drench you with my tears,
    O Heshbon and Elealeh—
for the shouts of joy over your summer fruit
    and your grain harvest have ended.
¹⁰ Joy and gladness are taken away from the orchards,
    in the vineyards people will sing no songs,^[b]
and^[c] no cheers are raised.
    No vintner^[d] treads out wine in the presses,
        because I’ve put an end to the shouting.
