Jeremiah 49:22-24

Revised Standard Version

²³ Concerning Damascus.
“Hamath and Arpad are confounded,
    for they have heard evil tidings;
they melt in fear, they are troubled like the sea^[a]
    which 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 travail.
