A Message About Kedar and Hazor

28 This message is about the tribe of Kedar and the rulers of Hazor. King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon defeated them. This is what the Lord says:

“Go and attack the tribe of Kedar.
    Destroy the people of the East.
29 Their tents and flocks will be taken away.
    Their tents and all their riches will be carried off.
    Their enemy will take away the camels.
Men will shout this to them:
    ‘Terrible things are happening all around us.’
