Isaiah 21:13-17

¹³The pronouncement about Arabia:

In the thickets of Arabia you must spend the night,

You caravans of Dedanites.

14Bring water for the thirsty,

You inhabitants of the land of Tema;

Meet the fugitive with bread.

15For they have fled from the swords,

From the drawn sword, and from the bent bow,

And from the press of battle.

¹⁶For this is what the Lord said to me: “In a year, as a hired worker would count it, all the splendor of Kedar will come to an end; ¹⁷and the remainder of the number of bowmen, the warriors of the sons of Kedar, will be few; for the Lord God of Israel has spoken.”
