14 Meet the thirsty, bring them water,inhabitants of the land of Tema,greet the fugitives with bread.
15 For they have fled from the sword,from the drawn sword;From the taut bow,from the thick of battle.
16 For thus the Lord has said to me: In another year, like the years of a hired laborer, all the glory of Kedar shall come to an end.
17 Few of Kedar’s stalwart archers shall remain, for the Lord, the God of Israel, has spoken.
