Jeremiah 49:23-29

23Of DamascusH1834. HamathH2574 is confounded, and ArpadH774; for they have heardH8085 evilH7451 tidings, they are meltedH4127 awayH4127: there is sorrow on the seaH3220; it cannot be quietH8252. 24DamascusH1834 is waxed feeble, she turneth herself to fleeH5127, and trembling hath seizedH270 on her: anguish and sorrows have takenH270 holdH2388 of her, as of a woman in travail. 25HowH349 is the cityH5892 of praiseH8416 not forsaken, the cityH5892 of my joyH4885? 26ThereforeH3651 her youngH970 menH376 shall fallH5307 in her streets, and all the menH376 of warH4421 shall be brought to silence in that dayH3117, saith Jehovah of hostsH6635. 27And I will kindleH3341 a fireH784 in the wallH2346 of DamascusH1834, and it shall devourH398 the palaces of Ben-hadadH1130.

28Of KedarH6938, and of the kingdomsH4467 of HazorH2674, which Nebuchadrezzar kingH4428 of BabylonH894 smote.

ThusH3541 saith Jehovah: AriseH6965 ye, goH5927 up to KedarH6938, and destroyH7703 the children of the eastH6924. 29Their tentsH168 and their flocksH6629 shall they takeH3947; they shall carryH5375 awayH5375 for themselves their curtainsH3407, and all their vesselsH3627, and their camelsH1581; and they shall cry unto them, TerrorH4032 on every side!
