Jeremiah 51:6-10
Christian Standard Bible
6 Leave Babylon;(A)
save your lives, each of you!(B)
Don’t perish because of her guilt.
For this is the time of the Lord’s vengeance—
he will pay her what she deserves.(C)
7 Babylon was a gold cup in the Lord’s hand,(D)
making the whole earth drunk.
The nations drank her wine;(E)
therefore, the nations go mad.(F)
8 Suddenly Babylon fell and was shattered.
Wail for her;
get balm(G) for her wound—
perhaps she can be healed.
9 We tried to heal Babylon,
but she could not be healed.
Abandon her!
Let each of us go to his own land,(H)
for her judgment extends to the sky
and reaches as far as the clouds.(I)
10 The Lord has brought about our vindication;(J)
come, let’s tell in Zion
what the Lord our God has accomplished.(K)
Jeremiah 51:6-10

6 (A)“Flee from the midst of Babylon;
let every one save his life!
(B)Be not cut off in her punishment,

the repayment he is rendering her.
7 Babylon was (D)a golden cup in the Lord's hand,
(E)making all the earth drunken;
(F)the nations drank of her wine;
therefore the nations went mad.
8 (G)Suddenly Babylon has fallen and been broken;
(H)wail for her!
(I)Take balm for her pain;
perhaps she may be healed.
9 We would have healed Babylon,
but she was not healed.
(J)Forsake her, and (K)let us go
each to his own country,
for (L)her judgment has reached up to heaven
and has been lifted up even to the skies.
10 (M)The Lord has brought about our vindication;
(N)come, let us declare in Zion
the work of the Lord our God.

Jeremiah 51:6-10
King James Version
6 Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for this is the time of the Lord's vengeance; he will render unto her a recompence.
7 Babylon hath been a golden cup in the Lord's hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations have drunken of her wine; therefore the nations are mad.
8 Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed: howl for her; take balm for her pain, if so be she may be healed.
9 We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country: for her judgment reacheth unto heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies.
10 The Lord hath brought forth our righteousness: come, and let us declare in Zion the work of the Lord our God.
