11 Get out! Get out and leave your captivity,
    where everything you touch is unclean.
Get out of there and purify yourselves,
    you who carry home the sacred objects of the Lord.
12 You will not leave in a hurry,
    running for your lives.
For the Lord will go ahead of you;
    yes, the God of Israel will protect you from behind.

11 (A)Depart, depart, go out from there,
(B)Do not touch what is unclean;
Go out of the midst of her, (C)purify yourselves,
You who carry the vessels of the Lord.
12 But you will not go out in (D)a hurry,
Nor will you go [a]as fugitives;
For the (E)Lord will go before you,
And (F)the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
