1The oracle ( a burden to be carried) concerning Damascus . "Listen carefully, Damascus will cease to be a city And will become a fallen ruin.
2"The cities of Aroer are deserted; They will be for flocks to lie down in, And there will be no one to make them afraid.
3"The fortified city will disappear from Ephraim, And the kingdom from Damascus And the remnant of Aram (Syria); They will be like the glory of the children of Israel," Declares the LORD of hosts.
4"Now in that day the glory of Jacob will fade, And the fatness of his flesh will become lean.
5"And it will be like the reaper gathering the standing grain, As his arm harvests the ears of grain; Yes, it will be like one gleaning ears of grain In the Valley of Rephaim.
6"Yet gleanings will be left in the land like the shaking of the olive tree, Two or three olives on the topmost branch, Four or five on the branches of the fruitful tree," Declares the LORD, the God of Israel.
7In that day man will have regard for his Maker, And his eyes will regard the Holy One of Israel .
8And he will not have regard for the altars, the work of his hands, Nor will he look to that which his fingers have made, Neither the Asherim (symbols of the goddess Asherah) nor the incense altars.
9In that day the strong cities of Aram and Israel will be like deserted places in the forest, Or like branches which they abandoned before the children of Israel; And the land will be a desolation.
10Because you have forgotten the God of your salvation And have not remembered the Rock of your Stronghold— Therefore you plant lovely plants And set the grounds with vine slips of a strange god,
11In the day that you plant it you carefully fence it in, And in the morning you bring your seed to blossom; Yet the harvest will be a heap In the day of sickness and incurable pain.
12Oh, the uproar of many peoples Who roar like the roaring of the seas, And the noise of nations Who roar like the rumbling of mighty waters!
13The nations roar on like the roaring of many waters, But God will rebuke them and they will flee far away, And be chased like chaff on the mountains before the wind, Or like whirling dust before the storm.
14At evening time, now look, sudden terror! Before morning the Assyrians are no more. This is the portion (fate) of those who plunder us, And the lot of those who pillage us.
