Jeremiah 49:27-29
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
27 I will set fire to the wall of Damascus;
it shall devour the palaces of Ben-hadad.[a]
Against Arabia. 28 About Kedar and the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, defeated.
Thus says the Lord:
Rise up, attack Kedar,
destroy the people from the east.(A)
29 Their tents and flocks shall be taken away,
their tent curtains and all their goods;
Their camels they carry off,
they shout over them, “Terror on every side!”(B)
