20“Go to Lebanon and cry! Raise your voice in Bashan! 

Cry out from Abarim, because all your lovers are defeated.” 

21I spoke to you when you were prosperous, 

but you said that you wouldn’t listen. 

This is how you’ve been ever since you were young. 

You don’t listen to me. 

22The wind will blow away all your shepherds, 

and your lovers will go into captivity. 

Then you will be ashamed and disgraced by all your wickedness.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

“Go up to Lebanon, and cry out,

and lift up your voice in Bashan;

cry out from Abarim,

for all your lovers are destroyed.

I spoke to you in your prosperity,

but you said, ‘I will not listen.’

This has been your way from your youth,

that you have not obeyed my voice.

The wind shall shepherd all your shepherds,

and your lovers shall go into captivity;

then you will be ashamed and confounded

because of all your evil.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

“Go up to Lebanon and cry out,

let your voice be heard in Bashan,

cry out from Abarim,

for all your allies are crushed.

I warned you when you felt secure,

but you said, ‘I will not listen!’

This has been your way from your youth;

you have not obeyed me.

The wind will drive all your shepherds away,

and your allies will go into exile.

Then you will be ashamed and disgraced

because of all your wickedness.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

Go up to Lebanon and cry out;

raise your voice in Bashan;

cry out from Abarim,

for all your lovers have been crushed.

I spoke to you when you were secure.

You said, “I will not listen.”

This has been your way since youth;

indeed, you have never listened to me.

The wind will take charge of all your shepherds,

and your lovers will go into captivity.

Then you will be ashamed and humiliated

because of all your evil.

NLTNew Living Translation

Weep for your allies in Lebanon.

Shout for them in Bashan.

Search for them in the regions east of the river.

See, they are all destroyed.

Not one is left to help you.

I warned you when you were prosperous,

but you replied, ‘Don’t bother me.’

You have been that way since childhood—

you simply will not obey me!

And now the wind will blow away your allies.

All your friends will be taken away as captives.

Surely then you will see your wickedness and be ashamed.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

Go up to Lebanon and cry out,

and in Bashan lift up your voice,

and cry out from Abarim,

for all your lovers are shattered.

I spoke to you in the times you were secure,

and you said, ‘I will not listen!’

This was your way from your youth,

for you have not obeyed my voice.

All your shepherds will shepherd the wind,

and your lovers will go into captivity.

Yes, then you will be ashamed and humiliated

because of all your wickedness.

KJV 1900King James Version

Go up to Lebanon, and cry; and lift up thy voice in Bashan,

And cry from the passages:

For all thy lovers are destroyed.

I spake unto thee in thy prosperity;

But thou saidst, I will not hear.

This hath been thy manner from thy youth,

That thou obeyedst not my voice.

The wind shall eat up all thy pastors,

And thy lovers shall go into captivity:

Surely then shalt thou be ashamed and confounded for all thy wickedness.
