Escape from Babylon;(A)
depart from the Chaldeans’ land.
Be like the rams that lead the flock.
For I will soon stir up and bring against Babylon(B)
an assembly of great nations from the north country.
They will line up in battle formation against her;(C)
from there she will be captured.
Their arrows will be like a skilled[a] warrior
who does not return empty-handed.
10 The Chaldeans will become plunder;
all Babylon’s plunderers will be fully satisfied.
This is the Lord’s declaration.
