Jeremiah 49:34-39
New Living Translation
A Message about Elam
34 This message concerning Elam came to the prophet Jeremiah from the Lord at the beginning of the reign of King Zedekiah of Judah. 35 This is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies says:
“I will destroy the archers of Elam—
the best of their forces.
36 I will bring enemies from all directions,
and I will scatter the people of Elam to the four winds.
They will be exiled to countries around the world.
37 I myself will go with Elam’s enemies to shatter it.
In my fierce anger, I will bring great disaster
upon the people of Elam,” says the Lord.
“Their enemies will chase them with the sword
until I have destroyed them completely.
38 I will set my throne in Elam,” says the Lord,
“and I will destroy its king and officials.
39 But I will restore the fortunes of Elam
in days to come.
I, the Lord, have spoken!”

Prophecy against Elam
34 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning (A)Elam, (B)at the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying:
35 “This is what the Lord of armies says:
‘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 disaster upon them,
Even My (G)fierce anger,’ declares the Lord,
‘And I will (H)send the sword after them
Until I have consumed them.
38 Then I will set My throne in Elam,
And eliminate from there the king and officials,’
Declares the Lord.
39 ‘But it will come about in the last days
That I will (I)restore the fortunes of Elam,’”
Declares the Lord.
