Context — Judgment Against Elamgenerated
Jeremiah 49:32 describes the consequences for Elam, a nation that feels secure. The LORD declares that their valuable camels and livestock will be taken as plunder, and those who shave their temples will be scattered like the wind. This reflects a broader theme of divine judgment against complacency and pride, as seen in similar warnings throughout the prophetic literature.

The Key Word — לָבַז, la.Vazgenerated
The verb לָבַז (baz) means to spoil or plunder, often in the context of war or conquest. It denotes the act of taking goods by force, emphasizing loss and destruction. In this verse, it highlights the fate of Elam's camels, which will be taken as spoils.
The use of this word underscores the severity of the judgment being pronounced. It is not merely a loss but a complete stripping away of their resources, which were vital to their livelihood.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb וְהָי֨וּ, and they will become, governs the sentence, with multiple clauses detailing the consequences. The structure emphasizes the sequential unfolding of judgment.
The clauses are interconnected, with the first part detailing the loss of camels and livestock, followed by the scattering of those who shave their temples, culminating in the declaration of calamity.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates וְהָי֨וּ as ἔσονται (esontai), meaning 'they will be.' This choice indicates a direct correspondence to the Hebrew's future tense, maintaining the prophetic tone.
For לָבַז, the LXX uses προνομὴν (pronomēn), which suggests a focus on the concept of 'prey' or 'booty,' thus broadening the idea of loss to include the spoils taken from the people.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Jeremiah 49:32 warns that the camels and livestock of Elam will be taken as plunder. The LORD declares that those who shave their temples will be scattered in every direction, and calamity will come upon them from all sides.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
The judgment signifies a warning against complacency and pride, showing that even secure nations can face divine retribution.
Camels and livestock were vital resources for trade and sustenance, representing the wealth and stability of a nation.
Shaving the temples was a cultural practice that could symbolize a vow or a sign of mourning, indicating a deeper spiritual or communal significance.
This verse echoes themes found in other prophetic texts where nations are warned of impending judgment for their actions and attitudes.

Compare the description of Laish in Judges 18:7. The prophet repeats the characteristic term of scorn which we have found in Jeremiah 9:26; Jeremiah 25:23, “them that dwell in the utmost corners,” or more accurately, those with cropped-hair temples, as descriptive of the wild tribes that are thus doomed to destruction. Their land shall be a dwelling-place for jackals (not “dragons”; see Note…

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text of Jeremiah 49:32 states that the camels will become plunder and the herds will be spoil, with a promise of scattering those who shave their temples. The Septuagint largely agrees with the Masoretic Text, matching 15 out of 18 words in a word-by-word correspondence, though it presents the text with its own word order and articles. The Samaritan Pentateuch and the Dead Sea Scrolls do not provide additional variations for this verse, confirming the overall consistency of the text across these ancient witnesses.
וְהָי֨וּ גְמַלֵּיהֶ֜ם לָבַ֗ז וַהֲמ֤וֹן מִקְנֵיהֶם֙ לְשָׁלָ֔ל וְזֵרִתִ֥ים לְכָל־ ר֖וּחַ קְצוּצֵ֣י פֵאָ֑ה וּמִכָּל־ עֲבָרָ֛יו אָבִ֥יא אֶת־ אֵידָ֖ם נְאֻם־ יְהוָֽה׃
15 of the 18 words are matched. This is the word-by-word correspondence, not the Septuagint's own sentence — its word order and its articles are its own.

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.

For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts. Joshua 11:1.

That holy thing that shall be born of thee. Luke 1:1.
Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…

1. Causes:
Unequal distribution of heat in the atmosphere causes currents of air or wind. The heated air rises and the air from around rushes in. The direction from which a current comes determines its name, as west wind coming from the West but blowing toward the East. When two currents of air of different directions meet, a spiral motion sometimes results.
See WHIRLWIND.
2. West Wind:
In Palestine the west wind is the most common. It comes from the sea and carries the moisture which condenses to form clouds, as it is turned upward by the mountains, to the cooler layers of the atmosphere. If the temperature reached is cool enough the cloud condenses and rain falls. Elijah looked toward the West for the "small cloud," and soon "the heavens grew black with clouds and wind" (1Ki 18:44 f). "When ye see a cloud rising in the…

Corner
The angle of a house (Job 1:19) or a street (Prov. 7:8). “Corners” in Neh. 9:22 denotes the various districts of the promised land allotted to the Israelites. In Num. 24:17, the “corners of Moab” denotes the whole land of Moab. The “corner of a field” (Lev. 19:9; 23:22) is its extreme part, which was not to be reaped. The Jews were prohibited from cutting the “corners,” i.e., the extremities, of the hair and whiskers running round the ears (Lev. 19:27; 21:5). The “four corners of the earth” in Isa. 11:12 and…
The "corner" of the field was not allowed, (Leviticus 19:9) to be wholly reaped. It formed a right of the poor to carry off what was so left, and this was a part of the maintenance from the soil to which that class were entitled. Under the scribes, minute legislation fixed one-sixtieth as the portion of a field which was to be left for the legal "corner." The proportion being thus fixed, all the grain might be reaped, and enough to satisfy the regulation subsequently separated from the whole crop. This "corner" was, like the gleaning, tithe-free.
