Jeremiah 49:34-39
Modern English Version
Judgment on Elam
34 The word of the Lord which came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying:
35 Thus says the Lord of Hosts:
I will break the bow of Elam,
the chief of their might.
36 Upon Elam I will bring the four winds
from the four quarters of heaven,
and will scatter them toward all those winds.
And there will be no nation
where the outcasts of Elam will not go.
37 For I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies,
and before those who seek their life.
And I will bring disaster upon them,
even My fierce anger,
says the Lord;
and I will send the sword after them
until I have consumed them.
38 And I will set My throne in Elam
and will destroy from there the king and the officials,
says the Lord.
39 But it will come to pass in the latter days
that I will restore the fortunes of Elam,
says the Lord.

A Message About Elam
34 This is the word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam,(A) early in the reign of Zedekiah(B) king of Judah:
35 This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“See, I will break the bow(C) of Elam,
the mainstay of their might.
36 I will bring against Elam the four winds(D)
from the four quarters of heaven;(E)
I will scatter them to the four winds,
and there will not be a nation
where Elam’s exiles do not go.
37 I will shatter Elam before their foes,
before those who want to kill them;
I will bring disaster on them,
even my fierce anger,”(F)
declares the Lord.
“I will pursue them with the sword(G)
until I have made an end of them.
38 I will set my throne in Elam
and destroy her king and officials,”
declares the Lord.
39 “Yet I will restore(H) the fortunes of Elam
in days to come,”
declares the Lord.
