13 The burden on Arabia. You lodge in a forest in Arabia, || O caravans of Dedanim.

14 Inhabitants of the land of Tema || Have brought water to meet the thirsty, || With his bread they came before a fugitive.

15 For they fled from the face of destructions, || From the face of an outstretched sword, || And from the face of a trodden bow, || And from the face of the grievousness of battle.

16 For thus said the Lord to me: “Within a year, as years of a hired worker, || All the glory of Kedar has been consumed.

17 And the remnant of the number of bow-men, || The mighty of the sons of Kedar, are few, || For YHWH, God of Israel, has spoken!”
