Jeremiah 49:31-36 New Living Translation (NLT)

31. “Go up and attack that complacent nation,”says the lord.“Its people live alone in the desertwithout walls or gates.

32. Their camels and other livestock will all be yours.I will scatter to the winds these peoplewho live in remote places.I will bring calamity upon themfrom every direction,” says the lord.

33. “Hazor will be inhabited by jackals,and it will be desolate forever.No one will live there;no one will inhabit it.”

34. This message concerning Elam came to the prophet Jeremiah from the lord at the beginning of the reign of King Zedekiah of Judah.

35. This is what the lord of Heaven’s Armies says:“I will destroy the archers of Elam—the best of their forces.

36. I will bring enemies from all directions,and I will scatter the people of Elam to the four winds.They will be exiled to countries around the world.
