Jeremiah 51:45-50
World English Bible
45 “My people, go away from the middle of her,
and each of you save yourselves from Yahweh’s fierce anger.
46 Don’t let your heart faint.
Don’t fear for the news that will be heard in the land.
For news will come one year,
and after that in another year news will come,
and violence in the land,
ruler against ruler.
47 Therefore behold, the days come that I will execute judgment on the engraved images of Babylon;
and her whole land will be confounded.
All her slain will fall in the middle of her.
48 Then the heavens and the earth,
and all that is therein,
will sing for joy over Babylon;
for the destroyers will come to her from the north,” says Yahweh.
49 “As Babylon has caused the slain of Israel to fall,
so the slain of all the land will fall at Babylon.
50 You who have escaped the sword, go!
Don’t stand still!
Remember Yahweh from afar,
and let Jerusalem come into your mind.”
Jeremiah 51:45-50

45 Come out from among her, my people!(A)
Save your lives, each of you,(B)
from the Lord’s burning anger.
46 May you not become cowardly and fearful
when the report is proclaimed in the land,
for the report will come one year,
and then another the next year.
There will be violence in the land
with ruler against ruler.

when I will punish Babylon’s carved images.(D)
Her entire land will suffer shame,
and all her slain will lie fallen within her.(E)

will shout for joy(F) over Babylon
because the destroyers from the north(G)

even as the slain of the whole earth fell
because of Babylon.
50 You who have escaped the sword,(H)
go and do not stand still!

and let Jerusalem come to your mind.
