(A)So I will send a fire upon the house of (B)Hazael,
    and it shall devour the strongholds of (C)Ben-hadad.
I will (D)break the gate-bar of (E)Damascus,
    and cut off the inhabitants from the Valley of (F)Aven,[a]
and him who holds the scepter from (G)Beth-eden;
    and the people of (H)Syria shall go into exile to (I)Kir,”
says the Lord.

Thus says the Lord:

(J)“For three transgressions of (K)Gaza,
    and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,
because (L)they carried into exile a whole people
    to deliver them up to Edom.
