Jeremiah 51:45-50
Christian Standard Bible
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.
47 Therefore, look, the days are coming(C)
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)
48 Heaven and earth and everything in them
will shout for joy(F) over Babylon
because the destroyers from the north(G)
will come against her.
This is the Lord’s declaration.
49 Babylon must fall because of the slain of Israel,
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!
Remember the Lord from far away,
and let Jerusalem come to your mind.
Jeremiah 51:45-50
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
45 Come out of her, my people!
Save your lives, each of you,
from the fierce anger of the Lord!(A)
46 Do not be fainthearted or fearful
at the rumors heard in the land—
one year one rumor comes,
the next year another,
rumors of violence in the land
and of ruler against ruler.(B)
47 Assuredly, the days are coming
when I will punish the images of Babylon;
her whole land shall be put to shame,
and all her slain shall fall in her midst.(C)
48 Then the heavens and the earth
and all that is in them
shall shout for joy over Babylon,
for the destroyers shall come against her out of the north,
says the Lord.(D)
49 Babylon must fall for the slain of Israel,
as the slain of all the earth have fallen because of Babylon.(E)
50 You survivors of the sword,
go; do not linger!
Remember the Lord in a distant land,
and let Jerusalem come into your mind:(F)
