Jeremiah 49:23-27 Against Damascus. Emath is confounded and Arphad: for they have heard very bad tidings, they are troubled as in the sea: through care they could not rest.

DouayRheims⁽ⁱ⁾ ²³ Against Damascus. Emath is confounded and Arphad: for they have heard very bad tidings, they are troubled as in the sea: through care they could not rest. ²⁴ Damascus is undone, she is put to flight, trembling hath seized on her: anguish and sorrows have taken her as a woman in labour. ²⁵ How have they forsaken the city of renown, the city of joy! ²⁶ Therefore her young men shall fall in her streets: and all the men of war shall be silent in that day, saith the Lord of hosts. ²⁷ And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall devour the strong holds of Benadad.
