A Prophecy About Elam

34 This is the word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, early in the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah:

35 This is what the Lord of Armies says.
Look, I will break the bow of Elam,[a]
the main source of its power.
36 I will bring against Elam the four winds,
from the four corners of the sky.
I will scatter its people to the four winds.
There will not be a nation
    where the outcasts of Elam do not go.
37 I will make Elam terrified of their enemies,
those who seek their lives.
I will bring disaster on them,
namely, my fierce anger, declares the Lord,
and I will send the sword after them,
until I have consumed them.
38 I will set up my throne in Elam,
and there I will destroy their king and officials,
declares the Lord.

39 Yet I will reverse the captivity of Elam in days to come,
declares the Lord.

A Message Concerning Elam

34 The word of Yahweh that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam at the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah the king of Judah, saying,[a] 35 “Thus says Yahweh of hosts:

‘Look, I am going to break the bow of Elam,
    the first and best of their might.
36 And I will bring to Elam four winds,
    from the four corners of heaven,
and I will scatter them to all these winds,
    and there will not be a nation
    where the scattered people of Elam will not go.
37 So I will shatter Elam before[b] their enemies,
    and before[c] the seekers of their life.
And I will bring disaster upon them,
    my burning anger,[d]declares[e] Yahweh.
‘And I will send after them the sword
    until I have destroyed them.
38 And I will set my throne in Elam
    and I will destroy from there king and officials,’ declares[f] Yahweh.
39 And then[g] in the last of the days
    I will restore the fortunes[h] of Elam,’ declares[i] Yahweh.”
