Jeremiah 49:28-33

28Concerning Kedar, and concerning the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon shall smite, thus saith Yhwh; Arise ye, go up to Kedar, and spoil the men of the east. 29Their tents and their flocks shall they take away: they shall take to themselves their curtains, and all their vessels, and their camels; and they shall cry unto them, Fear is on every side.

30Flee, get you far off, dwell deep, O ye inhabitants of Hazor, saith Yhwh; for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon hath taken counsel against you, and hath conceived a purpose against you.1 31Arise, get you up unto the wealthy nation, that dwelleth without care, saith Yhwh, which have neither gates nor bars, which dwell alone.2 32And their camels shall be a booty, and the multitude of their cattle a spoil: and I will scatter into all winds them that are in the utmost corners; and I will bring their calamity from all sides thereof, saith Yhwh.3 33And Hazor shall be a dwelling for dragons, and a desolation for ever: there shall no man abide there, nor any son of man dwell in it.
