28 Concerning Kedar and the kingdoms of Hazor that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon struck down.Thus says the Lord: “Rise up, advance against Kedar!Destroy the people of the east!
29 Their tents and their flocks shall be taken,their curtains and all their goods;their camels shall be led away from them,and men shall cry to them: ‘Terror on every side!’
30 Flee, wander far away, dwell in the depths,O inhabitants of Hazor!declares the Lord.For Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylonhas made a plan against youand formed a purpose against you.
31 “Rise up, advance against a nation at ease, that dwells securely,declares the Lord, that has no gates or bars,that dwells alone.
32 Their camels shall become plunder,their herds of livestock a spoil. I will scatter to every wind those who cut the corners of their hair,and I will bring their calamityfrom every side of them,declares the Lord.
33 Hazor shall become a haunt of jackals,an everlasting waste; no man shall dwell there; no man shall sojourn in her.”
34 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah.
