Context of Isaiah 16:10
8For the fields of Heshbon have withered, along with the grapevines of Sibmah. The rulers of the nations have trampled its choicest vines, which had reached as far as Jazer and spread toward the desert. Their shoots had spread out and passed over the sea. 9So I weep with Jazer for the vines of Sibmah; I drench Heshbon and Elealeh with my tears. Triumphant shouts have fallen silent over your summer fruit and your harvest. Joy and gladness are removed from the orchard; no one sings or shouts in the vineyards. No one tramples the grapes in the winepresses; I have put an end to the cheering. 11Therefore my heart laments for Moab like a harp, my inmost being for Kir-heres. 12When Moab appears on the high place, when he wearies himself and enters his sanctuary to pray, it will do him no good.

II., having been lost out of the other copies.Read the comment

I have made their vintage shouting to cease - That is, by the desolation that has come upon the land.
