Jeremiah 49:23-25

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

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!
