35 This is what the Lord of heaven’s armies says:“I will break Elam’s bow.I will break its strength.
36 I will bring the four winds against Elam.I will bring them from the four corners of the skies.I will scatter the people of Elam everywhere the four winds blow.And its captives will go to every nation.
37 I will break Elam to pieces in front of their enemies.The enemies want to destroy Elam.I will bring disaster to Elam.I will show them how angry I am!” says the Lord.“I will send a sword to chase Elam.It will chase them until I have killed them all.
38 I will show Elam that I am king.And I will destroy her king and her officers!” says the Lord.
39 “But I will make good things happen to Elam againin the future,” says the Lord.
