Jeremiah 49:35-39 English Standard Version (ESV)

35. Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the mainstay of their might.

36. And I will bring upon 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 Elam shall not come.

37. I will terrify Elam before their enemies and before those who seek their life. I will bring disaster upon them, my fierce anger, declares the Lord. I will send the sword after them, until I have consumed them,

38. and I will set my throne in Elam and destroy their king and officials, declares the Lord.

39. “But in the latter days I will restore the fortunes of Elam, declares the Lord.”
