³⁴ The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning ^(A)Elam, in the beginning of the reign of ^(B)Zedekiah king of Judah.

³⁵ Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Behold, I will break ^(C)the bow of ^(D)Elam, the mainstay of their might. ³⁶ And I will bring upon ^(E)Elam the four winds from the four quarters of heaven. And I will scatter them to all those winds, and there shall be no nation to which those driven out of ^(F)Elam shall not come. ³⁷ I will ^(G)terrify ^(H)Elam before their enemies and before those who seek their life. I will bring disaster upon them, ^(I)my fierce anger, declares the Lord. ^(J)I will send the sword after them, until I have consumed them, ³⁸ and I will set my throne in ^(K)Elam and destroy their king and officials, declares the Lord.

³⁹ “But in the latter days ^(L)I will restore the fortunes of ^(M)Elam, declares the Lord.”
