Jeremiah 51:45-50
Legacy Standard Bible
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.

And each of you (B)save yourselves
From the fierce anger of the Lord.

And you are not afraid at 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—

When I will punish the (F)idols of Babylon;
And her whole land will be (G)put to shame
And all her slain will fall in her midst.

And let Jerusalem [d]come to your mind.
