An Oracle Concerning Damascus

17 An (A)oracle concerning (B)Damascus.

Behold, Damascus will cease to be a city
    and will become a heap of ruins.
The cities of (C)Aroer are deserted;
    they will be for flocks,
    which will lie down, and (D)none will make them afraid.
The fortress will disappear from (E)Ephraim,
    and the kingdom from (F)Damascus;
and the remnant of Syria will be
    like (G)the glory of the children of Israel,
declares the Lord of hosts.
