30 Flee, wander very far, dwell deep down, ye inhabitants of Hazor, saith Jehovah; for Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath taken counsel against you, and hath conceived a purpose against you.

31 Arise, get you up against the nation at ease, that dwelleth securely, saith Jehovah, which hath neither gates nor bars: they dwell alone.

32 And their camels shall be a booty, and the multitude of their cattle a spoil; and I will scatter to every wind them that have the corners [of their beard] cut off, and I will bring their calamity from all sides thereof, saith Jehovah.

30 “Flee quickly away!
    Stay in deep caves,(A) you who live in Hazor,(B)
declares the Lord.
“Nebuchadnezzar(C) 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;(D)
    its people live far from danger.
32 Their camels(E) will become plunder,
    and their large herds(F) will be spoils of war.
I will scatter to the winds(G) those who are in distant places[a](H)
    and will bring disaster on them from every side,”
declares the Lord.
