17 1 A prophecy of the destruction of Damascus and Ephraim, 7 calamity moveth to repentance.

The [a]burden of [b]Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, for it shall be a ruinous heap.

The cities of [c]Aroer shall be forsaken: they shall be for the flocks: for they shall lie there, and none shall make them afraid.
