Jeremiah 49:33

And Hazor shall be a dwelling for dragons, and a desolation for ever: there shall no man abide there, nor any son of man dwell in it.

Jeremiah 49:33 stands among the prophecies concerning the kingdoms surrounding Israel, whose doom is pronounced. Its wider passage in Jeremiah 49:28–38 shows that the Chaldeans greatly harassed the Ishmaelites and nearly wiped out some of their tribes. Hazor's desolation in Jeremiah 49:33–35 belongs to the judgment on the Chaldeans fulfilled in the overthrow of Babylon by the Medes, when the nations are depicted as too weak to resist the Medes.
