Jeremiah 49:23-27

Judgment on Damascus

23Concerning hDamascus:

iHamath and jArpad are confounded,
for they have heard bad news;
they melt in fear,
kthey are troubled like the sea that cannot be quiet.
24 lDamascus has become feeble, mshe turned to flee,
and panic seized her;
anguish and sorrows have taken hold of her,
as nof a woman in labor.
25How is othe famous city not forsaken,
the city of my joy?
26 pTherefore her young men shall fall in her squares,
and all her soldiers shall be destroyed in that day,

declares the Lord of hosts.
27And qI will kindle a fire in the wall of rDamascus,
and it shall devour the strongholds of sBen-hadad.”

Zechariah 9:1

Judgment on Israel’s Enemies

1 The oracle of the word of the Lord is against the land of Hadrach
and tDamascus is its resting place.
For the Lord has an eye on mankind
and on all the tribes of Israel,
Or For the eye of mankind, especially of all the tribes of Israel, is toward the Lord
