Jeremiah

²⁷“I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus,and it will devour the palaces of Ben Hadad.” ²⁸Of Kedar, and of the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon struck. the Lord says:“Arise, go up to Kedar,and destroy the children of the east. ²⁹They will take their tents and their flocks.they will carry away for themselves their curtains,all their vessels, and their camels;and they will cry to them, ‘Terror on every side!’ ³⁰Flee!Wander far off!Dwell in the depths, you inhabitants of Hazor,” says the Lord;“for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has taken counsel against you,and has conceived a purpose against you. ³¹Arise! Go up to a nation that is at ease,that dwells without care,” says the Lord;“that has neither gates nor bars,that dwells alone. ³²Their camels will be a booty,and the multitude of their livestock a plunder.I will scatter to all winds those who have the corners of their beards cut off;and I will bring their calamity from every side of them,”says the Lord. ³³Hazor will be a dwelling place of jackals,a desolation forever.No man will dwell there,neither will any son of man live therein.”
