Jeremiah 49:34-39

The Voice

³⁴Here is an oracle concerning Elam. The word of the Eternal came to the prophet Jeremiah early in the reign of Zedekiah, king of Judah. ³⁵This is what the Eternal, Commander of heavenly armies has to say:

Eternal One: I will break the bows of Elam’s archers—the very best of their military might. ³⁶I will bring the four winds from the four corners of heaven to blow against Elam. I will scatter them to the four winds, and there will not be a nation where her exiles will not go. ³⁷I will shatter Elam right in front of her enemies, before those who want her dead. I will bring disaster upon these people, for My violent anger burns against them. I will pursue them in war until they are no more. ³⁸I will destroy her wicked king and officials and set the king I want on the throne over Elam. ³⁹But even so, in the latter times, the day will come when I will restore the fortunes of Elam.
