Context of Jeremiah 49:30

28This is about the tribe of Kedar and the kingdoms of Hazor that King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon defeated. This is what the Lord says: Get ready, attack Kedar, and loot the people from the east. 29Their tents and their flocks will be taken. Their tent curtains, utensils, and camels will be carried away. People will shout to them, “Terror is all around!” Run far away! Find a place to hide, inhabitants of Hazor, declares the Lord. King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon has made plans against you and intends to attack you. 31Get ready! Attack the nation living peacefully and securely, declares the Lord. It is a nation with no gates or bars. Its people live alone. 32Their camels will be taken as prizes. Their large herds will be taken as loot. I will scatter to the winds those who shave the hair on their foreheads. I will bring disaster on them from every side, declares the Lord.
