Jeremiah 49:33-38 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

33. “Hazor will become a home for wild dogs, an empty desert forever. No one will live there. No one will stay in that place.”

34. Early in the time when Zedekiah was king of Judah, Jeremiah the prophet received a message from the Lord about the nation of Elam.

35. The Lord All-Powerful says, “I will break Elam’s bow very soon. It is Elam’s strongest weapon.

36. I will bring the four winds against Elam. I will bring them from the four corners of the skies. I will send the people of Elam to every place on the earth where the four winds blow. Elam’s captives will be carried away to every nation.

37. I will break Elam to pieces while their enemies are watching. I will break Elam in front of the people who want to kill them. I will bring terrible troubles to them. I will show them how angry I am.” This message is from the Lord. “I will send a sword to chase Elam. The sword will chase them until I have killed them all.

38. I will show Elam that I am in control, and I will destroy its king and his officials.” This message is from the Lord.
