God’s Message to Aram

17 This is a message[a] about Damascus[b]:

“Damascus is now a city, but it will be destroyed.
    Only ruined buildings will be left there.
People will leave the cities of Aroer.[c]
    Flocks of sheep will wander freely in those empty towns;
    there will be no one to bother them.
The fort cities of Ephraim will be destroyed.
    The government in Damascus will be finished.
Those left in Aram will lose everything,
    just like the people of Israel,” says the Lord All-Powerful.
