It is not a KJV rendering
do a verse comparison and you will get similar results
even in contemporary versions
Damascus will cease to be - and that has not happened before
(LITV) The burden of Damascus: Behold, Damascus is taken away
from being a city, and it shall be a ruined heap.
(YLT) The burden of Damascus. Lo, Damascus is taken away from
being a city, And it hath been a heap--a ruin.
(NBLH) Oráculo (Profecía) contra Damasco: "Damasco dejará de ser ciudad, Y vendrá a ser un montón de ruinas.

That's exactly what happened. Damascus was a city-kingdom that was destroyed in 732 BC by Tiglath-pileser, who wrote in his Annals:
That prophecy also describes the downfall of Isarel (Ephraim) that happened 10 years later in 722 BC.
“I took 800 people together with their property, their cattle (and) their sheep as spoil. I took 750 captives of the cities of Kurussa (and) Sama (as well as) 550 captives from the city of Metuna as spoil. I destroyed 591 cities from the 16 districts of Damascus like ruins from the Flood.”

Really how come Trump warned Obama not to mess with Syria and now lo and behold he is contemplating the same response. Does the US have.'' liberal ''missiles and'' republican'' ones? Perhaps they are the bright smart shiny ones he tweeted about. As for voters waking up, their previous supposed sleep will seem like a mere Cat Nap compared to what good old Trumps wake up call may lead to.
Why would Assad start gassing his own population after a supposed triumph? It makes no sense. He's a cruel man, but I wouldn't say he's sadistic.
That and suppose for a moment the news reports are accurate. That he did use chemical weapons on his people.
What good will American intervention do and at what probable cost? What kind of regime will we put in place if his crumbles? A Turkish satellite? An Iranian satellite, a faux democracy? ISIS mk. II?
What is Syria's ultimate importance to American interests? Zilch beyond maybe imperial bragging rights. Our civilization's existence isn't somehow jeopardized by Assad being in power. Our economy isn't tied at the hip with Syria's.
If we do go to war, it would behoove us to at least discuss these issues out in the open and draft a formal declaration with better reasons than the Wilsonian buzzwords of "human rights" and "self-determination." Please.

Maybe you missed my thread, about the growing Russian and China axes. Plenty
of proof there, and Why I watch Russia and China grow into a World power.

America has lost The Pride of its Power, and the ability to use it.
There will not be an all out war [yet], we can not even contain Iran.
But [trade wars] will be [first] againest America, by China and Europe.
