Jeremiah 51:45-47

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁴⁵ “Go out of the midst of her, my people!
    Let every man save his life
    from the fierce anger of the Lord!
⁴⁶ Let not your heart faint, and be not fearful
    at the report heard in the land,
when a report comes in one year
    and afterward a report in another year,
and violence is in the land,
    and ruler is against ruler.

⁴⁷ “Therefore, behold, 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 the midst of her.
