Jeremiah 49:28-33 ▼

28 Concerning Kedar, and concerning the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon struck, thus says YHWH: “Arise and go up to Kedar, and destroy the men of the east!

29 Their tents and their flocks they will take away; their curtains, and all their vessels and their camels they will carry off for themselves; they will cry out over them, ‘Terror is on every side!’

30 Flee, wander far away, go deep to dwell, O dwellers of Hazor,” a declaration of YHWH. “For he has taken counsel against you?—Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and he has planned counsel against you?, a purpose.

31 Arise, go up against a nation at ease, Dwelling in safety,” a declaration of YHWH. “No gates and no bars are unto it; alone they dwell.

32 Their camels will be for spoil, and the multitude of their cattle for plunder, and I will scatter to every wind those cutting the corner; from all its sides I will bring their calamity!” A declaration of YHWH.

33 “Hazor will become as an abode for jackals, a desolation even to forever; no man will dwell there, and no a son of man will sojourn in it.”
