Today is the 26th day of October.

Welcome to the Daily Audio Bible.

I am Brian.

It is fantastic.

It is a joy to end another week together with you. As we continue the journey forward, obviously we're going right back to the place where we left off and that is the Book of

Jeremiah currently. When we get to the New Testament we will move into some new territory

we concluded the Book of 2 Timothy We will move into some new territory.

We concluded the book of 2 Timothy yesterday.

Move into the letter to Titus.

Talk about that when we get there.

But first,

Jeremiah, chapter 49, verse 23, 250, verse 46. The towns of Amoth in Arpad have heard your bad news.

They have lost hope and worries roll over them like ocean waves.

You people of Damascus have lost your courage and in panic you turned to run

gripped by fear and pain. Once I was pleased with your famous city. But now I warn you, escape well, you still can. Soon even

your best soldiers will lie dead in your streets. I, the Lord, all powerful, have spoken. I will set fire to your

city walls and burn down the fortress's King Benadad built. Here is what the Lord says about the Kedar tribe and the desert villages

that were conquered by King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylonia. Listen, you people of Kedar, and the other tribes of the eastern desert.

I have told Nebuchadnezzar to attack and destroy you.

His fearsome army will surround you taking your tents and possessions

your sheep and camels

Run and hide you people of the desert who live in villages.
