Concerning ^(C1)Kedar and the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon defeated. This is what the LORD says: "Arise, go up to Kedar And devastate the ^(F1)(C2)people of the east.

-"They will take away their tents and their flocks; They will carry off for themselves Their tent ^(C1)curtains, all their goods and their ^(C2)camels, And they will call out to one another, '^(C3)Horror on every side!'

-"Run away, flee! Dwell in the depths, You inhabitants of Hazor," declares the LORD; "For ^(C1)Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has formed a plan against you And devised a scheme against you.

-"Arise, go up against a nation which is ^(C1)at ease, Which lives securely," declares the LORD. "It has ^(C2)no gates or bars; They ^(C3)dwell alone.

-"Their camels will become plunder, And their many livestock for spoils, And I will ^(C1)scatter to all the winds those who ^(C2)cut the corners of their hair; And I will bring their disaster from every side," declares the LORD.

"Hazor will become a ^(C1)haunt of jackals, A desolation forever; No one will live there, Nor will ^(F1)anyone of mankind reside in it."
