Damascus Will Be Judged for Its Crimes

This is what Yahweh says:

Because Damascus has committed three crimes, and now a fourth crime,
    I will not change my plans.
        The Arameans have crushed the people of Gilead
            with iron-spiked threshing[a] sledges.
I will send a fire on the house of Hazael
    and burn down the palaces of Ben Hadad.
I will break the bars on the gates of Damascus.
    I will cut off those living in Aven Valley
        and the one who holds the scepter in Beth Eden.
    The people of Aram will go into captivity at Kir.

Yahweh has said this.
