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

Isaiah 33:7-9
New King James Version
7 Surely their valiant ones shall cry outside,
(A)The ambassadors of peace shall weep bitterly.
8 (B)The highways lie waste,
The traveling man ceases.
(C)He has broken the covenant,
[a]He has despised the [b]cities,
He regards no man.
9 (D)The earth mourns and languishes,
Lebanon is shamed and shriveled;
Sharon is like a wilderness,
And Bashan and Carmel shake off their fruits.
