Isaiah 16:8-10

Modern English Version

⁸ For the fields of Heshbon languish,
    and the vine of Sibmah;
the lords of the nations
    have broken down its choice plants;
they have come as far as Jazer
    and wandered through the wilderness.
Her branches are stretched out;
    they are passed over the sea.
⁹ Therefore I will weep bitterly for Jazer,
    the vine of Sibmah;
I will water you with my tears,
    O Heshbon and Elealeh.
For the shouting for your summer fruits
    and for your harvest has fallen away.
¹⁰ Gladness and joy are taken away out of the plentiful field,
    and in the vineyards there shall be no singing,
    nor shall there be shouting;
the treaders shall tread out no wine in their presses.
    I have made their vintage shouting to cease.
