Jeremiah 49:34-36
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
Against Elam. 34 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam[a] at the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah, king of Judah:
35 Thus says the Lord of hosts:
Look! I will break the bow of Elam,
the mainstay of their might.
36 I will bring upon Elam the four winds
from the four ends of the heavens:
I will scatter them to all these winds, until there is no nation
to which the outcasts of Elam have not gone.
