Isaiah 33:9-11
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
9 The country languishes in mourning,
Lebanon withers with shame;
Sharon[a] is like the Arabah,
Bashan and Carmel are stripped bare.(A)
10 Now I will rise up, says the Lord,
now exalt myself,
now lift myself up.(B)
11 You conceive dry grass, bring forth stubble;
my spirit shall consume you like fire.
