Flee from Bavel, let each one save his life!
Don’t perish because of her guilt.
For the time has come for the vengeance of Adonai;
he will repay her what she deserves.
Bavel was a gold cup in the hands of Adonai;
it made the whole earth drunk —

this is why the nations have lost their senses.
Bavel has suddenly fallen.
She is broken; wail for her.
Bring healing ointment for her wounds;
perhaps she can be healed.
