The highways are desolate,
    travelers have quit the paths,
Covenants are broken, witnesses spurned;
    yet no one gives it a thought.(A)
The country languishes in mourning,
    Lebanon withers with shame;
Sharon[a] is like the Arabah,
    Bashan and Carmel are stripped bare.(B)
10 Now I will rise up, says the Lord,
    now exalt myself,
    now lift myself up.(C)

    its witnesses[a] are despised,
    no one is respected.
The land dries up(D) and wastes away,
    Lebanon(E) is ashamed and withers;(F)
Sharon(G) is like the Arabah,
    and Bashan(H) and Carmel(I) drop their leaves.

10 “Now will I arise,(J)” says the Lord.
    “Now will I be exalted;(K)
    now will I be lifted up.
