1 An oracle of the word of the Lord that is against the land of Hadrak,and Damascus is the place where it will rest.For the eyes of men and the tribes of Israelare on the Lord.
2 Also Hamath borders it,even Tyre and Sidon, cities that are very wise.
3 Tyre has built a rampart for herselfand stored up silver like it were dust,and even gold like it were mud in the streets.
4 The Lord will dispossess her of her possessionsand strike down her power in the sea,and she will be devoured with fire.
5 Ashkelon will observe this and fear;Gaza as well and will writhe in anguish;even Ekron, her hope will be confounded.The king of Gaza will perish,and no one will inhabit Ashkelon.
