Isaiah 21:15-17
Names of God Bible
15 They flee from swords,
from swords ready to kill,
from bows ready to shoot,
and from the thick of battle.
16 This is what Adonay says to me: All of Kedar’s honor will be gone in another year. I will count it like workers count the years left on their contracts.[a] 17 The remaining number of archers, Kedar’s mighty archers, will be few. Yahweh Elohim of Israel has spoken.
