Bersiaplah, majulah melawan bangsa yang hidup sentosa, yang diam dengan aman tenteram, demikianlah firman TUHAN, dan yang tidak punya pintu gerbang atau palang, dan yang tinggal tersendiri!
Bangkitlah kamu, berangkatlah mendatangi suatu bangsa yang bersentosa dan yang duduk dengan selamat, demikianlah firman Tuhan, maka padanya tiadalah barang pintu atau kancing, dan masing-masing mereka itu duduklah berasing.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Arise, get you up unto the wealthy nation,.... Or, "to the nation [that is] at ease" s; the people that live quietly and in peace; have no wars with their neighbours, nor any among themselves; which seems to be the better sense of the word, for these Kedarenes were not a very wealthy people: these words do not express the counsel and purpose of Nebuchadnezzar; or are an address of his to his army, commanding them to arise, and invade the country of Arabia; for they are the words of the Lord, and are addressed to him and his army to go up in a hostile manner against the Kedarenes, here described:
that dwelleth without care, saith the Lord; not without the care of their flocks, or without providing things necessary for themselves and families; they were not an indolent people, that lived an idle and inactive life; but they dwelt "confidently", or "securely" t, as it may be rendered; they had no thought nor care to defend themselves from an enemy; they had no fear of any, imagining that no one would think it worth while to give themselves any trouble to invade them; their meanness they supposed was a protection to them:
which have neither gates nor bars; to their cities, or to their houses, being in no fear of an enemy to come and plunder them:
[which] dwell alone; being in no alliance with other nations; nor dwelling together in cities, towns, and villages, at least the common people; the greater part of them being scattered up and down, a few in one place, and a few in another; they dwelt for the convenience of feeding their flocks.
s אל גוי שליו "ad gentem quietam", V. L. Munster, Schmidt; "tranquillam", Junius Tremellius, Piscator "pacificam", so some in Vatablus, Pagninus, Montanus. t יושב לבטה "habitantem confidenter", V. L. Pagninus; "in fiducia", Montanus; "in fiducia magna", Vatablus; "secure", Junius & Tremellius, Piscator, Schmidt.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The wealthy nation - Or, a nation at rest, living securely and in confidence.
Which dwell alone - They dwell alone, i. e., have neither alliances with other nations, nor contact by commerce.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 49:31. The wealthy nation — גוי שליו goi sheleiv, "the peaceable nation"-
Have neither gates nor bars — The Arabs, who had nothing but their tents; no cities, nor even permanent villages.
