“Arabia,
With all the princes
Of Kedar,
Were your favored dealers
In lambs,
Rams,
Goats.
They did business
With you
In these things.”
The princes of the Arabian Peninsula were the favorite trading partners of Tyre as regards livestock, especially lambs, rams, and goats. The princes of Kedar referred to those dark skinned Arabs who were descendants of Ishmael that lived in the northwestern section of the Arabian Peninsula.
