30 ‘Flee quickly away!
    Stay in deep caves, you who live in Hazor,’
declares the Lord.
‘Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has plotted against you;
    he has devised a plan against you.

31 ‘Arise and attack a nation at ease,
    which lives in confidence,’
declares the Lord,
‘a nation that has neither gates nor bars;
    its people live far from danger.
32 Their camels will become plunder,
    and their large herds will be spoils of war.
I will scatter to the winds those who are in distant places[a]
    and will bring disaster on them from every side,’
declares the Lord.
