4I will send fire on the house of Hazael that will consume the fortresses of Ben-Hadad.

5I will break down the gate of Damascus; I will destroy the king who is in Or the inhabitants of the Valley of Aven Aven means wickedness. and the one who holds the scepter in Beth Eden. The people of Aram will go into exile to Kir,” says the LORD .
