And spread His wings over Bozrah;
The heart of the mighty men of Edom in that day shall be
Like the heart of a woman in birth pangs.
Judgment on Damascus
b“Hamath and Arpad are shamed,
For they have heard bad news.
They are fainthearted;
cThere is1 trouble on the sea;
It cannot be quiet.
She turns to flee,
And fear has seized her.
aAnguish and sorrows have taken her like a woman in1 labor.
And all the men of war shall be cut off in that day,” says the Lord of hosts.
And it shall consume the palaces of Ben-Hadad.”
