Amos 1:3-5
Yahweh says:“ For three transgressions of Damascus, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have threshed Gilead with threshing instruments of iron;but I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, and it will devour the palaces of Ben Hadad.I will break the bar of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitant from the valley of Aven, and him who holds the scepter from the house of Eden; and the people of Syria shall go into captivity to Kir,” says Yahweh.

Jeremiah 49:23-27
Of Damascus:“ Hamath is confounded, and Arpad; for they have heard evil news. They have melted away. There is sorrow on the sea. It can’t be quiet.Damascus has grown feeble, she turns herself to flee, and trembling has seized her. Anguish and sorrows have taken hold of her, as of a woman in travail.How is the city of praise not forsaken, the city of my joy?Therefore her young men will fall in her streets, and all the men of war will be brought to silence in that day,” says Yahweh of Armies.“ I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it will devour the palaces of Ben Hadad.”

Jeremiah 23:33-38
“ When this people, or the prophet, or a priest, asks you, saying,‘ What is the message from Yahweh?’ Then you shall tell them,‘“ What message? I will cast you off,” says Yahweh.’As for the prophet, the priest, and the people, who say,‘ The message from Yahweh,’ I will even punish that man and his household.You will say everyone to his neighbor, and everyone to his brother,‘ What has Yahweh answered?’ and,‘ What has Yahweh said?’You will mention the message from Yahweh no more: for every man’s own word has become his message; for you have perverted the words of the living God, of Yahweh of Armies, our God.You will say to the prophet,‘ What has Yahweh answered you?’ and,‘ What has Yahweh spoken?’Although you say,‘ The message from Yahweh;’ therefore Yahweh says:‘ Because you say this word,“ The message from Yahweh,” and I have sent to you, telling you not to say,“ The message from Yahweh;”

Isaiah 45:20-22
“ Assemble yourselves and come. Draw near together, you who have escaped from the nations. Those have no knowledge who carry the wood of their engraved image, and pray to a god that can’t save.Declare and present it. Yes, let them take counsel together. Who has shown this from ancient time? Who has declared it of old? Haven’t I, Yahweh? There is no other God besides me, a just God and a Savior. There is no one besides me.“ Look to me, and be saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.

They will be for flocks, which shall lie down, and no one shall make them afraid.The fortress shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Syria. They will be as the glory of the children of Israel,” says Yahweh of Armies.

Isaiah 9:8-21
The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it falls on Israel.All the people will know, including Ephraim and the inhabitants of Samaria, who say in pride and in arrogance of heart,“ The bricks have fallen, but we will build with cut stone. The sycamore fig trees have been cut down, but we will put cedars in their place.”Therefore Yahweh will set up on high against him the adversaries of Rezin, and will stir up his enemies,The Syrians in front, and the Philistines behind; and they will devour Israel with open mouth. For all this, his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.Yet the people have not turned to him who struck them, neither have they sought Yahweh of Armies.Therefore Yahweh will cut off from Israel head and tail, palm branch and reed, in one day.The elder and the honorable man is the head, and the prophet who teaches lies is the tail.For those who lead this people lead them astray; and those who are led by them are destroyed.Therefore the Lord will not rejoice over their young men, neither will he have compassion on their fatherless and widows; for everyone is profane and an evildoer, and every mouth speaks folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.For wickedness burns like a fire. It devours the briers and thorns; yes, it kindles in the thickets of the forest, and they roll upward in a column of smoke.Through Yahweh of Armies’ wrath, the land is burned up; and the people are the fuel for the fire. No one spares his brother.One will devour on the right hand, and be hungry; and he will eat on the left hand, and they will not be satisfied. Everyone will eat the flesh of his own arm:Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh; and they together shall be against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
