28 sAgainst Kedar and against the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon shall strike.
Thus says the Lord:
“Arise, go up to Kedar,
And devastate tthe men of the East!
29 Their utents and their flocks they shall take away.
They shall take for themselves their curtains,
All their vessels and their camels;
And they shall cry out to them,
v‘Fear is on every side!’
30 “Flee, get far away! Dwell in the depths,
O inhabitants of Hazor!” says the Lord.
“For Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has taken counsel against you,
And has conceived a plan against you.
31 “Arise, go up to wthe wealthy nation that dwells securely,” says the Lord,
“Which has neither gates nor bars,
xDwelling alone.
32 Their camels shall be for booty,
And the multitude of their cattle for plunder.
I will yscatter to all winds those 2in the farthest corners,
And I will bring their calamity from all its sides,” says the Lord.
33 “Hazor zshall be a dwelling for jackals, a desolation forever;
No one shall reside there,
Nor son of man dwell in it.”

About The New King James VersionThe New King James Version is a total update of the 1611 King James Version, also known as the "Authorized Version." Every attempt has been made to maintain the beauty of the original version while updating the English grammar to contemporary style and usage. The result is much better "readability." It is noteworthy that the NKJV is one of the few modern translations still based on the "Western" or "Byzantine" manuscript tradition. This makes the New King James Version an invaluable aid to comparative English Bible study. |
