Isaiah, Chapter 17, verses 1-6

¹ The^aoracle concerning Damascus.“Behold, Damascus is about to be removed from being a city
And will become a fallen ruin.

²“The cities^bof Aroer are forsaken;
They will be for flocks^cto lie down in,
And there will be no one to frighten them.

³“The^dfortified city will disappear from Ephraim,
And^esovereignty from Damascus
And the remnant of Aram;
They will be like the glory of the sons of Israel,”
Declares the LORD of hosts.

⁴

Now in that day the glory of Jacob will^ffade,
And the fatness of his flesh will become lean.

⁵

It will be even like the^greaper gathering the standing grain,
As his arm harvests the ears,
Or it will be like one gleaning ears of grain
In the valley of Rephaim.

⁶

Yet gleanings will be left in it like the^hshaking of an olive tree,
Two or three olives on the topmost bough,
Four or five on the branches of a fruitful tree,
Declares the LORD, the God of Israel.
