Question

what was the prophecy given to king priam and queen hecuba about their newborn son, paris?
that he would grow up to be the strongest warrior in all of troy.
that he was destined to rule a mighty empire and bring great wealth to the city.
that he would become a burning torch and cause the destruction of the city of troy.
that he would be the one to defeat the greeks in the coming war.

Explanation:

In Greek mythology, the prophecy given to King Priam and Queen Hecuba about their newborn son Paris was that he would become a burning torch and cause the destruction of the city of Troy. This is because Paris' actions (like the abduction of Helen) led to the Trojan War, which resulted in Troy's downfall. The other options do not align with the myth: being the strongest warrior, ruling an empire, or defeating the Greeks are not part of this specific prophecy about Paris and Troy's destruction.

Answer:

That he would become a burning torch and cause the destruction of the city of Troy.
