New Living Translation (NLT)
Jeremiah 49
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.
37 I myself will go with Elam’s enemies to shatter it. In my fierce anger, I will bring great disaster upon the people of Elam,” says the LORD. “Their enemies will chase them with the sword until I have destroyed them completely.
38 I will set my throne in Elam,” says the LORD, “and I will destroy its king and officials.
39 But I will restore the fortunes of Elam in days to come. I, the LORD, have spoken!”
Jeremiah 50
1 The LORD gave Jeremiah the prophet this message concerning Babylon and the land of the Babylonians.
2 This is what the LORD says: “Tell the whole world, and keep nothing back. Raise a signal flag to tell everyone that Babylon will fall! Her images and idols will be shattered. Her gods Bel and Marduk will be utterly disgraced.
3 For a nation will attack her from the north and bring such destruction that no one will live there again. Everything will be gone; both people and animals will flee.
4 “In those coming days,” says the LORD, “the people of Israel will return home together with the people of Judah. They will come weeping and seeking the LORD their God.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
