For I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life: and I will bring evil upon them, [even] my fierce anger, saith the LORD; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them:
Ver. 37. For I will cause Elam to be dismayed,] q.d., They trust in their great strength, and hold themselves insuperable; but I can easily dispirit (and so destroy) them. See Jeremiah 49:5; Jeremiah 49:14; Jeremiah 49:29 .
