Jeremiah 49:23-27

49:23

Concerning Damascus
<01834>_.

Hamath
<02574>

is confounded
<0954> (8804)_,

and Arpad
<0774>_:

for they have heard
<08085> (8804)

evil
<07451>

tidings
<08052>_:

they are fainthearted
<04127> (8738)_;

[there is] sorrow
<01674>

on the sea
<03220>_;

it cannot
<03201> (8799)

be quiet
<08252> (8687)_.

{fainthearted: Heb. melted} {on...: or, as on the sea}

49:24

Damascus
<01834>

is waxed feeble
<07503> (8804)_,

[and] turneth
<06437> (8689)

herself to flee
<05127> (8800)_,

and fear
<07374>

hath seized
<02388> (8689)

on [her]: anguish
<06869>

and sorrows
<02256>

have taken
<0270> (8804)

her, as a woman in travail
<03205> (8802)_.

49:25

How is the city
<05892>

of praise
<08416>

not left
<05800> (8795)_,

the city
<07151>

of my joy
<04885>_!

49:26

Therefore her young men
<0970>

shall fall
<05307> (8799)

in her streets
<07339>_,

and all the men
<0582>

of war
<04421>

shall be cut off
<01826> (8735)

in that day
<03117>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_.

49:27

And I will kindle
<03341> (8689)

a fire
<0784>

in the wall
<02346>

of Damascus
<01834>_,

and it shall consume
<0398> (8804)

the palaces
<0759>

of Benhadad
<01130>_.
