6. There will be times of security for you —a storehouse of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge.The fear of the Lord is Zion’s treasure.
7. Listen! Their warriors cry loudly in the streets;the messengers of peace weep bitterly.
8. The highways are deserted;travel has ceased.An agreement has been broken, cities despised,and human life disregarded.
9. The land mourns and withers; Lebanon is ashamed and decayed.Sharon is like a desert;Bashan and Carmel shake off their leaves.
