In the forest in Arabia shall yee lodge, O yee trauelling companies of Dedanim. 14The inhabitants of the land of Tema brought water to him that was thirsty, they preuented with their bread him that fled. 15For they fled from the swords, from the drawen sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grieuousnesse of warre. 16For thus hath the Lord sayd vnto me: Within a yeere, according to the yeeres of an hireling, and all the glory of Kedar shall faile. 17And the residue of the number of archers, the mighty men of the children of Kedar shalbe diminished: for the Lord God of Israel hath spoken it.
