Look, their brave men(A) cry aloud in the streets;
    the envoys(B) of peace weep bitterly.
The highways are deserted,
    no travelers(C) are on the roads.(D)
The treaty is broken,(E)
    its witnesses[a] are despised,
    no one is respected.
The land dries up(F) and wastes away,
    Lebanon(G) is ashamed and withers;(H)
Sharon(I) is like the Arabah,
    and Bashan(J) and Carmel(K) drop their leaves.
