1 # The burden <04853> of Damascus <01834>. Behold, Damascus <01834> is taken away <05493> (8716) from being a city <05892>, and it shall be a ruinous <04654> heap <04596>.
2 The cities <05892> of Aroer <06177> are forsaken <05800> (8803): they shall be for flocks <05739>, which shall lie down <07257> (8804), and none shall make them afraid <02729> (8688).
3 The fortress <04013> also shall cease <07673> (8738) from Ephraim <0669>, and the kingdom <04467> from Damascus <01834>, and the remnant <07605> of Syria <0758>: they shall be as the glory <03519> of the children <01121> of Israel <03478> , saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>.
4 And in that day <03117> it shall come to pass, that the glory <03519> of Jacob <03290> shall be made thin <01809> (8735), and the fatness <04924> of his flesh <01320> shall wax lean <07329> (8735).
5 And it shall be as when the harvestman <07105> gathereth <0622> (8800) the corn <07054>, and reapeth <07114> (8799) the ears <07641> with his arm <02220>; and it shall be as he that gathereth <03950> (8764) ears <07641> in the valley <06010> of Rephaim <07497>.
6 # Yet gleaning grapes <05955> shall be left <07604> (8738) in it, as the shaking <05363> of an olive tree <02132> , two <08147> or three <07969> berries <01620> in the top <07218> of the uppermost bough <0534>, four <0702> or five <02568> in the outmost fruitful <06509> (8802) branches <05585> thereof, saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>.
7 At that day <03117> shall a man <0120> look <08159> (8799) to his Maker <06213> (8802), and his eyes <05869> shall have respect <07200> (8799) to the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>.
8 And he shall not look <08159> (8799) to the altars <04196>, the work <04639> of his hands <03027>, neither shall respect <07200> (8799) that which his fingers <0676> have made <06213> (8804), either the groves <0842>, or the images <02553>.
9 # In that day <03117> shall his strong <04581> cities <05892> be as a forsaken <05800> (8803) bough <02793> , and an uppermost branch <0534>, which they left <05800> (8804) because <06440> of the children <01121> of Israel <03478> : and there shall be desolation <08077>.
10 Because thou hast forgotten <07911> (8804) the God <0430> of thy salvation <03468>, and hast not been mindful <02142> (8804) of the rock <06697> of thy strength <04581>, therefore shalt thou plant <05193> (8799) pleasant <05282> plants <05194>, and shalt set <02232> (8799) it with strange <02114> (8801) slips <02156>:
11 In the day <03117> shalt thou make thy plant <05194> to grow <07735> (8770), and in the morning <01242> shalt thou make thy seed <02233> to flourish <06524> (8686): but the harvest <07105> shall be a heap <05067> in the day <03117> of grief <02470> (8737) and of desperate <0605> (8803) sorrow <03511>.
12 # Woe <01945> to the multitude <01995> of many <07227> people <05971>, which make a noise <01993> (8799) like the noise <01993> (8800) of the seas <03220>; and to the rushing <07588> of nations <03816>, that make a rushing like the rushing <07582> (8735) of mighty <03524> waters <04325>!
13 The nations <03816> shall rush <07582> (8735) like the rushing <07588> of many <07227> waters <04325> : but God shall rebuke <01605> (8804) them, and they shall flee <05127> (8804) far off <04801>, and shall be chased <07291> (8795) as the chaff <04671> of the mountains <02022> before <06440> the wind <07307>, and like a rolling thing <01534> before <06440> the whirlwind <05492>.
14 And behold at eveningtide <06256> <06153> trouble <01091>; and before the morning <01242> he is not. This is the portion <02506> of them that spoil <08154> (8802) us, and the lot <01486> of them that rob <0962> (8802) us.
