Jeremiah 49:38
Compare all
36 Against Elam I will bring the four winds
From the four quarters of heaven,
And scatter them toward all those winds;
There shall be no nations where the outcasts of Elam will not go.
37 For I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies
And before those who seek their life.
aI will bring disaster upon them,
My fierce anger,’ says the Lord;
‘And I will send the sword after them
Until I have consumed them. 
38 I will aset My throne in Elam,
And will destroy from there the king and the princes,’ says the Lord. 
39 ‘But it shall come to pass ain the latter days:
I will bring back the captives of Elam,’ says the Lord.”

Jeremiah 49:38

I will show Myself King by My judgments there, as though My tribunal were erected there. The throne of Cyrus, God's instrument, set up over Media, of which Elam was a part, may be meant [GROTIUS]; or rather, that of Nebuchadnezzar (Jeremiah 43:10). Then the restoration of Elam (Jeremiah 49:39) will refer partly to that which took place on the reduction of Babylon by Cyrus, prince of Persia and Media.
