34 God's Message to the prophet Jeremiah on Elam at the outset of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah.
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 God-of-the-Angel-Armies says: "Watch this! I'll break Elam's bow, her weapon of choice, across my knee.
35 This is what the LORD Almighty says: “See, I will break the bow of Elam, the mainstay of their might.
36 Then I'll let four winds loose on Elam, winds from the four corners of earth. I'll blow them away in all directions, landing homeless Elamites in every country on earth.
36 I will bring against Elam the four winds from the four quarters of heaven; I will scatter them to the four winds, and there will not be a nation where Elam’s exiles do not go.
37 They'll live in constant fear and terror among enemies who want to kill them. I'll bring doom on them, my anger-fueled doom. I'll set murderous hounds on their heels until there's nothing left of them.
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 And then I'll set up my throne in Elam, having thrown out the king and his henchmen.
38 I will set my throne in Elam and destroy her king and officials,” declares the LORD.
39 But the time will come when I make everything right for Elam again." God's Decree.
39 “Yet I will restore the fortunes of Elam in days to come,” declares the LORD.
