²⁵ They have made Elam^[a] a bed among the slain with all its hordes, their graves all around it, all of them uncircumcised, killed by the sword, for terror of them was spread in the land of the living, and they bear their shame with those who go down to the Pit; they are placed among the slain.^(A)

³⁰ The princes of the north are there, all of them, and all the Sidonians, who have gone down in shame with the slain, for all the terror that they caused by their might; they lie uncircumcised with those who are killed by the sword and bear their shame with those who go down to the Pit.^(A)

Judgment on Elam

³⁴ The word of the Lord that came to the prophet Jeremiah concerning Elam, at the beginning of the reign of King Zedekiah of Judah.^(A)

³⁵ Thus says the Lord of hosts: I am going to break the bow of Elam, the mainstay of their might,^{(B) 36} and I will bring upon Elam the four winds from the four quarters of heaven, and I will scatter them to all these winds, and there shall be no nation to which the exiles from Elam shall not come.^{(C) 37} I will terrify Elam before their enemies and before those who seek their life; I will bring disaster upon them, my fierce anger, says the Lord. I will send the sword after them until I have consumed them,^{(D) 38} and I will set my throne in Elam and destroy their king and officials, says the Lord.

³⁹ But in the latter days I will restore the fortunes of Elam, says the Lord.
