13An oracle concerning Arabia. You will lodge in the wood in Arabia, O caravans of the Dedanites.14Bring water to the thirsty. The dwellers of the land of Tema met the wanderer with his food.15For they wandered from the faces of swords, from the face of a sword left behind, from the face of a tread bow, and from the face of the heaviness of battle.16For thus the LORD said to me: Within still a year, like the years of a hired man, all the glory of Kedar will finish.17And the remnant of the number of the bow of the mighty men, the sons of Kedar, will diminish, for the LORD, the God of Israel, spoke.
