35
This is what the LORD Almighty says: “See, I will break the bow of Elam, the mainstay of their might.

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,” declares the LORD. “I will pursue them with the sword 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.

“Yet I will restore the fortunes of Elam in days to come,” declares the LORD.
