Jeremiah 51:45-50

English Standard Version

⁴⁵ “Go out of the midst of her, ^(A)my people!
    Let every one save his life
    from ^(B)the fierce anger of the Lord!
⁴⁶ Let not your heart faint, and be not fearful
    ^(C)at the report heard in the land,
^(D)when a report comes in one year
    and afterward a report in another year,
and violence is in the land,
    ^(E)and ruler is against ruler.

⁴⁷ “Therefore, behold, the days are coming
    when ^(F)I will punish the images of Babylon;
^(G)her whole land shall be put to shame,
    and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.
^48 (H)Then the heavens and the earth,
    and all that is in them,
shall sing for joy over Babylon,
    ^(I)for the destroyers shall come against them out of the north,
declares the Lord.
⁴⁹ Babylon must fall for the slain of Israel,
    ^(J)just as for Babylon have fallen the slain of all the earth.

^50 (K)“You who have escaped from the sword,
    go, do not stand still!
Remember the Lord from far away,
    and let Jerusalem come into your mind:
