^9 (A)The land mourns and languishes;
    Lebanon is confounded and withers away;
Sharon is like a desert,
    and Bashan and Carmel shake off their leaves.

² it shall blossom abundantly
    and rejoice with joy and singing.
^(A)The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it,
    the majesty of ^(B)Carmel and ^(C)Sharon.
^(D)They shall see the glory of the Lord,
    the majesty of our God.
