28. Concerning Kedar, and concerning the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon defeated:Thus says the Lord: Arise, go up to Kedar,and destroy the men of the East.
29. Their tents and their flocks they will take away.They will carry away their curtains for themselves,and all their vessels, and their camels;and they will call out to one another,“Terror is on every side!”

31. Arise, go up to the nation at ease,that dwells securely,says the Lord.It has neither gates nor bars;they dwell alone.
32. Their camels will become plunder,and the multitude of their cattle booty.And I will scatter into all winds those who cut the corners of their hair,and I will bring their calamity from all sides,says the Lord.
33. Hazor will become a dwelling for jackalsand a desolation forever.No man will abide there,nor any son of man dwell in it.
