Jeremiah 50:2-4
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
2 Declare it among the nations and publish it and set up a signal [to spread the news]—publish and conceal it not; say, Babylon has been taken; Bel [the patron god] is put to shame, Merodach (Bel) is dismayed and broken down. [Babylon’s] images are put to shame, her [senseless] idols are thrown down!
3 For out of the north there has come up a nation [Media] against her which will make her land desolate, and none will dwell there. They will have fled, they will be gone—from man even to beast.
4 In those days and at that time, says the Lord, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Judah together; they shall come up weeping as they come and seek the Lord their God [inquiring for and of Him and requiring Him, both by right of necessity and of the promises of God’s Word].

Jeremiah 50:2-4
New International Version
2 “Announce and proclaim(A) among the nations,
lift up a banner(B) and proclaim it;
keep nothing back, but say,
‘Babylon will be captured;(C)
Bel(D) will be put to shame,(E)
Marduk(F) filled with terror.
Her images will be put to shame
and her idols(G) filled with terror.’
3 A nation from the north(H) will attack her
and lay waste her land.
No one will live(I) in it;
both people and animals(J) will flee away.
