17:1 Here is a message about Damascus:
“Look, Damascus is no longer a city,
it is a heap of ruins!
7:8 For Syria’s leader is Damascus,
and the leader of Damascus is Rezin.
Within sixty-five years Ephraim will no longer exist as a nation.
10:9 Is not Calneh like Carchemish?
Hamath like Arpad?
Samaria like Damascus?
