Prophecies Against Damascus and Israel
17 Here is a prophecy against Damascus that the Lord gave me. He said,
“Damascus will not be a city anymore.
Instead, all its buildings will be knocked down.
2 The cities of Aroer will be deserted.
They will be left to the flocks that lie down there.
No one will make them afraid.
3 Ephraim’s people will no longer have cities with high walls around them.
Royal power will disappear from Damascus.
Those who are left alive in Aram
will be like the glory of the people of Israel,”
announces the Lord who rules over all.
