Prophecy against Damascus
23 Concerning (A)Damascus:
“(B)Hamath and (C)Arpad are put to shame,
For they have heard bad news;
They (D)despair.
There is anxiety at the sea,
It (E)cannot be calmed.
24 Damascus has become helpless;
She has turned away to flee,
And panic has gripped her;
(F)Distress and labor pains have seized her
Like a woman in childbirth.
25 How the (G)city of praise has not been deserted,
The town of My joy!
26 Therefore, her (H)young men will fall in her streets,
And all the men of war will perish on that day,” declares the Lord of armies.
27 “I will (I)set fire to the wall of Damascus,
And it will devour the fortified palace of (J)Ben-hadad.”
Jeremiah 49:23-27
New International Version
A Message About Damascus
23 Concerning Damascus:(A)
“Hamath(B) and Arpad(C) are dismayed,
for they have heard bad news.
They are disheartened,
troubled like[a] the restless sea.(D)
24 Damascus has become feeble,
she has turned to flee
and panic has gripped her;
anguish and pain have seized her,
pain like that of a woman in labor.(E)
25 Why has the city of renown not been abandoned,
the town in which I delight?
26 Surely, her young men(F) will fall in the streets;
all her soldiers will be silenced(G) in that day,”
declares the Lord Almighty.
27 “I will set fire(H) to the walls of Damascus;(I)
it will consume(J) the fortresses of Ben-Hadad.(K)”

Amos 1:3-5
New American Standard Bible
3 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.
4 So I will send fire upon the house of Hazael,
And it will consume the citadels of (C)Ben-hadad.
5 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.

3 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Damascus,(A)
even for four, I will not relent.(B)
Because she threshed Gilead
with sledges having iron teeth,
4 I will send fire(C) on the house of Hazael(D)
that will consume the fortresses(E) of Ben-Hadad.(F)
5 I will break down the gate(G) of Damascus;
I will destroy the king who is in[a] the Valley of Aven[b]
and the one who holds the scepter in Beth Eden.(H)
The people of Aram will go into exile to Kir,(I)”
says the Lord.(J)
