Concerning Damascus:
“Hamath and Arpad are dismayed,
for they have heard bad news.
They are disheartened,
troubled like the restless sea.
Damascus has become feeble,
she has turned to flee
and panic has gripped her;
anguish and pain have seized her,
pain like that of a woman in labor.
Why has the city of renown not been abandoned,
the town in which I delight?

About Damascus:
Hamath and Arpad are put to shame,
for they have heard a bad report and are agitated,
like the anxious sea that cannot be calmed.
Damascus has become weak;
she has turned to run;
panic has gripped her.
Distress and labor pains have seized her
like a woman in labor.
How can the city of praise not be abandoned,
the town that brings me joy?

NLTNew Living Translation
This message was given concerning Damascus. This is what the Lord says:
“The towns of Hamath and Arpad are struck with fear,
for they have heard the news of their destruction.
Their hearts are troubled
like a wild sea in a raging storm.
Damascus has become feeble,
and all her people turn to flee.
Fear, anguish, and pain have gripped her
as they grip a woman in labor.
That famous city, a city of joy,
will be forsaken!

LEBThe Lexham English Bible
Concerning Damascus:
“Hamath and Arpad are ashamed,
for they have heard bad news;
they melt.
There is concern in the sea.
It is not able to keep quiet.
Damascus has grown slack.
She has turned away to flee and panic.
Anxiety has seized her,
and labor pains have grasped her,
like a woman in labor.
How the city of praise has not been abandoned!
The city of my joy!

KJV 1900King James Version
Concerning Damascus.
Hamath is confounded, and Arpad:
For they have heard evil tidings: they are fainthearted;
There is sorrow on the sea; it cannot be quiet.
Damascus is waxed feeble, and turneth herself to flee,
And fear hath seized on her:
Anguish and sorrows have taken her, as a woman in travail.
How is the city of praise not left,
The city of my joy!
