Isaiah 33:7-9
English Standard Version
7 Behold, their heroes cry in the streets;
(A)the envoys of peace weep bitterly.
8 (B)The highways lie waste;
the traveler ceases.
(C)Covenants are broken;
cities[a] are despised;
there is no regard for man.
9 (D)The land mourns and languishes;
Lebanon is confounded and withers away;
Sharon is like a desert,
and Bashan and Carmel shake off their leaves.

International Standard Version
Israel’s Unenviable Plight
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.”
