This is what the Lord says:
“For (A)three offenses of (B)Damascus, and for four,
I will not [a]revoke its punishment,
Because they threshed Gilead with iron sledges.
So I will send fire upon the house of Hazael,
And it will consume the citadels of (C)Ben-hadad.
I will also (D)break the gate bar of Damascus,
And eliminate every inhabitant from the [b]Valley of Aven,
As well as him who holds the scepter, from Beth-eden;
So the people of Aram will be exiled to (E)Kir,”
Says the Lord.

This is what the Lord says:
“For three offenses of (F)Gaza, and for four,
I will not revoke its punishment,
Because they led into exile an entire population
To (G)turn them over to Edom.
So I will send fire on the wall of Gaza
And it will consume her citadels.
I will also eliminate every inhabitant from (H)Ashdod,
As well as him who holds the scepter, from (I)Ashkelon;
And I will direct My [c]power against Ekron,
And the remnant of the (J)Philistines will perish,”
Says the Lord [d]God.

This is what the Lord says:
“For three offenses of (K)Tyre, and for four,
I will not revoke its punishment,
Because they turned an entire population over to Edom
And did not remember the covenant of [e](L)brotherhood.
10 So I will (M)send fire on the wall of Tyre,
And it will consume her citadels.”
