⁴⁵ “^(A)Come forth from her midst, My people,
And each of you ^(B)escape with his life
From the burning anger of Yahweh.
⁴⁶ Now ^(C)lest your heart grow faint,
And you fear the ^(D)report that will be heard in the land—
For the report will come ^[a]one year,
And after that ^[b]another report in ^[c]another year,
And violence will be in the land
With ^(E)ruler against ruler—
⁴⁷ Therefore behold, days are coming
When I will punish the ^(F)graven images of Babylon;
And her whole land will be ^(G)put to shame,
And all her slain will fall in her midst.
⁴⁸ Then ^(H)heaven and earth and all that is in them
Will shout for joy over Babylon,
For ^(I)the destroyers will come to her from the north,”
Declares Yahweh.

^49 (J)Indeed Babylon is to fall for the slain of Israel,
As also for Babylon ^(K)the slain of all the earth have fallen.
⁵⁰ You ^(L)who have escaped the sword,
Go! Do not stand around!
^(M)Remember Yahweh from afar,
And let Jerusalem come upon your heart.
