29 Their tents and their flocks shall they take away: yea, they shall take to themselves their [a]curtains and all their vessels, and their camels, and they shall cry unto them, Fear is on every side.

30 Flee, get you far off ([b]they have consulted to dwell) O ye inhabitants of Hazor, saith the Lord: for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babel hath taken counsel against you, and hath devised a purpose against you.

31 [c]Arise, and get you up unto the wealthy nation that dwelleth without care, saith the Lord, which have neither gates nor bars, but dwell alone.
