I will also (A)break the gate bar of Damascus
And cut off the inhabitant from the [a]valley of Aven
And him who holds the scepter from Beth-eden;
So the people of Aram will go into exile to (B)Kir,”

Thus says Yahweh,

“For three transgressions of (C)Gaza and for four
I will not turn back its punishment

To (D)deliver it up to Edom.
So I will send fire upon the wall of Gaza,
And it will consume her citadels.
