Jeremiah 49:22-24

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

Hamath and Arpad are confounded,
    for they have heard bad news;
they melt in fear, they are troubled like the sea^[a]
    that cannot be quiet.
²⁴ Damascus has become feeble, she turned to flee,
    and panic seized her;
anguish and sorrows have taken hold of her,
    as of a woman in labour.
