Jeremiah 49:28-33

International Standard Version

This is what the Lord says:

“Arise, go against Kedar!
    Plunder the people of the east!
²⁹ Take their tents and their flocks,
    their tent curtains and all their goods.
Take their camels away from them.
    Cry out against them, ‘Terror is all around!’
³⁰ Flee! Run away quickly!
    Go to a remote place to stay, residents of Hazor,”
        declares the Lord.
“For King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon has formed a plan
    and devised a strategy against them.

³¹ “Arise, go up against a nation at ease, living securely,”
    declares the Lord,
        “without gates or bars, living alone.
³² Their camels will become booty,
    their many herds will become spoil.
I’ll scatter to the winds
    those who shave the corners of their beards,^[a]
and I’ll bring disaster on them from every side,”
    declares the Lord.

³³ “Hazor will become a dwelling place for jackals,
    a perpetual wasteland.
No one will live there;
    no human being will reside in it.”
