⁹ So I weep,^(A) as Jazer weeps,
    for the vines of Sibmah.
Heshbon and Elealeh,^(B)
    I drench you with tears!^(C)
The shouts of joy^(D) over your ripened fruit
    and over your harvests^(E) have been stilled.

¹⁶ The Lord will roar^(A) from Zion
    and thunder from Jerusalem;^(B)
    the earth and the heavens will tremble.^(C)
But the Lord will be a refuge^(D) for his people,
    a stronghold^(E) for the people of Israel.

“The Lord roars^(A) from Zion
    and thunders^(B) from Jerusalem;^(C)
the pastures of the shepherds dry up,
    and the top of Carmel^(D) withers.”^(E)
