Isaiah 52:11-12

New Century Version

¹¹ You people, leave, leave; get out of Babylon!
    Touch nothing that is unclean.
You men who carry the Lord’s things used in worship,
    leave there and make yourselves pure.
¹² You will not be forced to leave Babylon quickly;
    you will not be forced to run away,
because the Lord will go before you,
    and the God of Israel will guard you from behind.
