Isaiah 17:2-4

New American Standard Bible

²The cities ^[a]of ^(A)Aroer are abandoned;
They will be for ^(B)herds ^[b]to lie down in,
And there will be ^(C)no one to frighten them.
³The ^[c]^(D)fortified city will disappear from Ephraim,
And ^[d]sovereignty from Damascus
And the remnant of Aram;
They will be like the ^(E)glory of the sons of Israel,”
Declares the Lord of armies.

⁴Now on that day the ^(F)glory of Jacob will ^[e]fade,
And ^(G)the fatness of his flesh will become lean.
