Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ²³ Of Damascus, Turned pale, have Hamath and Arpad, For, a calamitous report, have they heard––they tremble,––In the sea, is anxiety, it cannot, rest. ²⁴ Enfeebled, is Damascus, She hath turned to flee, But, terror, hath seized her,––Anguish and pangs, have seized her, as a woman in childbirth. ²⁵ Alas! is she not forsaken––The city so praised! The citadel I rejoiced in! ²⁶ Therefore, shall her young men fall, in her broadways,––And, all her men of war, shall be silent in that day, Declareth Yahweh of hosts; ²⁷ Then will I kindle a fire in the walls of Damascus,––And it shall devour the palaces of Ben–hadad.
