Isaiah 17:1-2
International Standard Version
A Rebuke to Damascus
17 A message[a] about Damascus:[b]
“Look! Damascus[c] will cease to be a city.
Instead, it will become a pile of ruins.
2 The cities of Oraru[d] will be deserted—
they will be devoted to herds that will lay at rest,
and terrorism will be no more.[e]
