Jeremiah 49:27-36 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

27. And I have kindled a fire against the wall of Damascus, And it consumed palaces of Ben-Hadad!'

28. Concerning Kedar, and concerning the kingdoms of Hazor, that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath smitten: `Thus said Jehovah: Arise ye, go ye up unto Kedar, And spoil the sons of the east.

29. Their tents and their flock they do take, Their curtains, and all their vessels, And their camels, they bear away for themselves, And they called concerning them, Fear [is] round about.

30. Flee, bemoan mightily, go deep to dwell, Ye inhabitants of Hazor--an affirmation of Jehovah, For given counsel against you hath Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, Yea, he deviseth against them a device.

31. Rise ye, go up unto a nation at rest, Dwelling confidently, an affirmation of Jehovah, It hath no two-leaved doors nor bar, Alone they do dwell.

32. And their camels have been for a prey, And the multitude of their cattle for a spoil, And I have scattered them to every wind, Who cut off the corner [of the beard], And from all its passages I bring in their calamity, An affirmation of Jehovah.

33. And Hazor hath been for a habitation of dragons, A desolation--unto the age, No one doth dwell there, nor sojourn in it doth a son of man!'

34. That which hath been the word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying:

35. `Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Lo, I am breaking the bow of Elam, The beginning of their might.

36. And I have brought in to Elam four winds, From the four ends of the heavens, And have scattered them to all these winds, And there is no nation whither outcasts of Elam come not in.
