Isaiah 33:8-9
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
8 The highways are desolate,
travelers have quit the paths,
Covenants are broken, witnesses spurned;
yet no one gives it a thought.(A)
9 The country languishes in mourning,
Lebanon withers with shame;
Sharon[a] is like the Arabah,
Bashan and Carmel are stripped bare.(B)

Jeremiah 14:2
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
2 Judah mourns,
her gates are lifeless;
They are bowed to the ground,
and the outcry of Jerusalem goes up.(A)
