'Captors' in the Bible

When they sin against You—for there is no one who does not sin—and You are angry with themand hand them over to the enemy,and their captors deport themto a distant or nearby country,

and when they come to their sensesin the land where they were deportedand repent and petition You in their captors’ land,saying: “We have sinned and done wrong;we have been wicked,”

for when you return to Yahweh, your brothers and your sons will receive mercy in the presence of their captors and will return to this land. For Yahweh your God is gracious and merciful; He will not turn His face away from you if you return to Him.”
