In context

13This is the burden against Arabia: 14Bring water for the thirsty, 15For they flee from the sword— 16For 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. 17The remaining archers, the warriors of Kedar, will be few.”
