23 Concerning Damascus (well-watered land): “Hamath (fortress) and Arpad (I shall be supported) are put to shame, for they have heard a bad report; they are agitated like the sea \on the sea/; their anxiety cannot be calmed. 24 Damascus (well-watered land) has become feeble; she has turned to flee. Panic has gripped her; anguish and pain have seized her like a woman in labor. 25 How is the city of praise not forsaken, the town that brings Me joy? 26 For her young men will fall in the streets, and all her warriors will be silenced in that day,” declares the LORD {YHWH} of Hosts. 27 “I will set fire to the walls of Damascus (well-watered land); it will consume the fortresses of Ben-hadad (son of Hadad).” Jeremiah 49:23-27, Berean Annotated Bible.
