* Concerning Damascus . Hamath is confounded , and Arpad : for they have heard evil tidings : they are fainthearted ; there is sorrow on the sea ; it cannot be quiet . * Damascus is waxed feeble , and turneth herself to flee , and fear hath seized on her : anguish and sorrows have taken her , as a woman in travail . * How is the city of praise not left , the city of my joy ! * Therefore her young men shall fall in her streets , and all the men of war shall be cut off in that day , saith the LORD of hosts . * And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus , and it shall consume the palaces of Benhadad .
