The Word of the Lord Against Israel’s Enemies

A threatening oracle.
The word of the Lord is against the land of Hadrak,
and against Damascus, its resting place,
because the eye of the Lord is on mankind and on all the tribes of Israel.
It is also against Hamath, which borders on Damascus,
and Tyre and Sidon, though they are very wise.
        Tyre has built a stronghold for herself and has piled up silver like dust,
        and gold like dirt from the streets.

The word of the Lord is against the land of Hadrak
    and will come to rest on Damascus(B)

    are on the Lord[a]
and on Hamath(C) too, which borders on it,
    and on Tyre(D) and Sidon,(E) though they are very skillful.
Tyre has built herself a stronghold;
    she has heaped up silver like dust,
    and gold like the dirt of the streets.(F)
