Isaiah 16:8-10
New International Version
8 The fields of Heshbon(A) wither,(B)
the vines of Sibmah(C) also.
The rulers of the nations
have trampled down the choicest vines,(D)
which once reached Jazer(E)
and spread toward the desert.
Their shoots spread out(F)
and went as far as the sea.[a](G)
9 So I weep,(H) as Jazer weeps,
for the vines of Sibmah.
Heshbon and Elealeh,(I)
I drench you with tears!(J)
The shouts of joy(K) over your ripened fruit
and over your harvests(L) have been stilled.
10 Joy and gladness are taken away from the orchards;(M)
no one sings or shouts(N) in the vineyards;
no one treads(O) out wine at the presses,(P)
for I have put an end to the shouting.

Joel 1:10-12
New International Version
10 The fields are ruined,
the ground is dried up;(A)
the grain is destroyed,
the new wine(B) is dried up,
the olive oil fails.(C)
11 Despair, you farmers,(D)
wail, you vine growers;
grieve for the wheat and the barley,(E)
because the harvest of the field is destroyed.(F)
12 The vine is dried up
and the fig tree is withered;(G)
the pomegranate,(H) the palm and the apple[a] tree—
all the trees of the field—are dried up.(I)
Surely the people’s joy
is withered away.
