Prophecy against Damascus
23 Concerning (A)Damascus:
“(B)Hamath and (C)Arpad are put to shame,
For they have heard bad news;
They (D)despair.
There is anxiety at the sea,
It (E)cannot be calmed.
24 Damascus has become helpless;
She has turned away to flee,
And panic has gripped her;
(F)Distress and labor pains have seized her
Like a woman in childbirth.
25 How the (G)city of praise has not been deserted,
The town of My joy!
26 Therefore, her (H)young men will fall in her streets,
And all the men of war will perish on that day,” declares the Lord of armies.
27 “I will (I)set fire to the wall of Damascus,
And it will devour the fortified palace of (J)Ben-hadad.”

A Message About Damascus
23 Concerning Damascus:(A)
“Hamath(B) and Arpad(C) are dismayed,
for they have heard bad news.
They are disheartened,
troubled like[a] the restless sea.(D)
24 Damascus has become feeble,
she has turned to flee
and panic has gripped her;
anguish and pain have seized her,
pain like that of a woman in labor.(E)
25 Why has the city of renown not been abandoned,
the town in which I delight?
26 Surely, her young men(F) will fall in the streets;
all her soldiers will be silenced(G) in that day,”
declares the Lord Almighty.
27 “I will set fire(H) to the walls of Damascus;(I)
it will consume(J) the fortresses of Ben-Hadad.(K)”
