Jeremiah 51:6-10
Holman 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
International Standard Version
6 Flee from Babylon,[a]
and each of you, escape with your life!
Don’t be destroyed[b] because of her guilt,
for it’s time for the Lord’s vengeance.
He is paying back what is due to her.
7 Babylon was a golden cup in the Lord’s hand,
making the whole earth drunk.
The nations drank her wine,
therefore the nations have gone mad.
8 Suddenly, Babylon fell down and was shattered.
Wail for her!
Bring balm for her wound,
perhaps she will be healed.
9 We tried to heal Babylon,
but she wouldn’t be healed.
Leave her, and let each of us go to his own country.
For her judgment has reached to the heavens,
and is lifted up to the sky.
10 The Lord will vindicate us.
Come! Let us declare the work of the Lord our God in Zion.
