Jesaja 21,15

13 En kunngjøring om Arabia: Dere karavaner av Dedanitter, som overnatter i krattene i Arabia,

14 bring vann til de tørste; dere innbyggere i Tema, møt flyktningene med brød.

For de flykter fra sverdene, fra det dragne sverd, fra den bøyde bue, og fra kampens hete.

16 For dette er hva Herren har talt til meg: “Innen et år, som en leid arbeider ville regne det, vil all prakten i Kedar ta slutt.

17 Antallet av bueskytterne, krigerne i Kedar, vil være få.” Herren, Israels Gud, har talt.
