Jeremiah 49:23-27

Word Against Damascus
23 Concerning (A)Damascus.
“(B)Hamath and (C)Arpad are put to shame,
For they have heard a bad report;
They are (D)melting away.
There is anxiety by the sea,
It (E)cannot be quieted.
24 Damascus has become limp in their hands;
She has turned away to flee,
And panic has taken hold of her;
(F)Distress and pangs have seized her
Like a woman in childbirth.
25 How [a]the (G)city of praise has not been forsaken,
The town of My joy!
26 Therefore, her (H)young men will fall in her open squares,
And all the men of war will be [b]silenced in that day,” declares Yahweh of hosts.
27 “I will (I)set fire to the wall of Damascus,
And it will devour the [c]fortified towers of (J)Ben-hadad.”

Jeremiah 49:23-27
American Standard Version
23 Of Damascus. Hamath is confounded, and Arpad; for they have heard evil tidings, they are melted away: there is [a]sorrow on the sea; it cannot be quiet. 24 Damascus is waxed feeble, she turneth herself to flee, and trembling hath seized on her: anguish and sorrows have taken hold of her, as of a woman in travail. 25 How is the city of praise not forsaken, the city of my joy? 26 Therefore her young men shall fall in her streets, and all the men of war shall be brought to silence in that day, saith Jehovah of hosts. 27 And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall devour the palaces of Ben-hadad.
