31 “There is a nation that feels so safe and secure
    that it does not have gates or fences to protect it.
And no one lives near enough to help them.
    So attack that nation!” says the Lord.
32 “Their camels are there to be taken in battle.
    Their large herds of cattle will be yours.
I will scatter them throughout the earth—those people who cut their hair short.[a]
    I will bring disaster on them from every direction.”
    This message is from the Lord.
33 “Hazor will become a home for wild dogs, an empty desert forever.
No one will live there.
    No one will stay in that place.”
