Isaiah 33:7-9
Legacy Standard Bible
7 Behold, their brave men cry in [a]the streets;
The (A)messengers of peace weep bitterly.
8 The highways are desolate, [b]the (B)traveler has ceased;
He has (C)broken the covenant, he has rejected the cities;
He has no regard for man.
9 (D)The land mourns and languishes,
(E)Lebanon is humiliated and withers;
(F)Sharon is like a desert plain,
And Bashan and Carmel [c]lose their foliage.

Isaiah 33:7-9
Revised Standard Version
7 Behold, the valiant ones[a] cry without;
the envoys of peace weep bitterly.
8 The highways lie waste,
the wayfaring man ceases.
Covenants are broken,
witnesses[b] are despised,
there is no regard for man.
9 The land mourns and languishes;
Lebanon is confounded and withers away;
Sharon is like a desert;
and Bashan and Carmel shake off their leaves.
