25 How the famous city is forsaken,[a]
the joyful city![b]
26 Therefore her young men shall fall in her squares,
and all her soldiers shall be destroyed in that day,

27 And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus,
and it shall devour the strongholds of Ben-ha′dad.”

it will consume(E) the fortresses of Ben-Hadad.(F)”
