Prophecy against Elam

34 That which came as the word of the Lord to Jeremiah the prophet concerning (A)Elam, (B)at the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying:

35 “Thus says the Lord of hosts,
‘Behold, I am going to (C)break the bow of Elam,
The [a]finest of their might.
36 ‘I will bring upon Elam the (D)four winds
From the four ends of heaven,
And will (E)scatter them to all these winds;
And there will be no nation
To which the outcasts of Elam will not go.
37 ‘So I will [b]shatter Elam before their enemies
And before those who seek their lives;
And I will (F)bring calamity upon them,
Even My (G)fierce anger,’ declares the Lord,
‘And I will (H)send out the sword after them
Until I have consumed them.
38 ‘Then I will set My throne in Elam
And destroy [c]out of it king and princes,’
Declares the Lord.
39 ‘But it will come about in the last days
That I will (I)restore the [d]fortunes of Elam,’”
Declares the Lord.
