31. Arise, go up to the nation at ease,that dwells securely,says the Lord.It has neither gates nor bars;they dwell alone.
32. Their camels will become plunder,and the multitude of their cattle booty.And I will scatter into all winds those who cut the corners of their hair,and I will bring their calamity from all sides,says the Lord.
33. Hazor will become a dwelling for jackalsand a desolation forever.No man will abide there,nor any son of man dwell in it.
34. The word of the Lord which came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying:
35. Thus says the Lord of Hosts: I will break the bow of Elam,the chief of their might.
36. Upon Elam I will bring the four windsfrom the four quarters of heaven,and will scatter them toward all those winds.And there will be no nationwhere the outcasts of Elam will not go.
37. For I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies,and before those who seek their life.And I will bring disaster upon them,even My fierce anger,says the Lord;and I will send the sword after themuntil I have consumed them.
38. And I will set My throne in Elamand will destroy from there the king and the officials,says the Lord.
39. But it will come to pass in the latter daysthat I will restore the fortunes of Elam,says the Lord.
