Isaiah 21:16
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For this is what the Lord says to me: “Within one year, as a hired worker would count it, all the glory of Kedar will be gone.
In context

15 For they flee from the sword— the sword that is drawn— from the bow that is bent, and from the stress of battle.
16 For this is what the Lord says to me: “Within one year, as a hired worker would count it, all the glory of Kedar will be gone.
17 The remaining archers, the warriors of Kedar, will be few.” For the LORD, the God of Israel, has spoken.
