Amos 1:3-5

3This is what the Lord says: Because Damascus has committed three crimes, and now a fourth crime, I will not change my plans. The Arameans have crushed ⌞the people of⌟ Gilead with iron-spiked threshing  sledges.

4I will send a fire on the house of Hazael and burn down the palaces of Ben Hadad.

5I will break the bars ⌞on the gates⌟ of Damascus. I will cut off those living in Aven Valley and the one who holds the scepter in Beth Eden. The people of Aram will go into captivity at Kir. The Lord has said this.
