Micah 4:10
New King James Version
10 Be in pain, and labor to bring forth,
O daughter of Zion,
Like a woman in birth pangs.
For now you shall go forth from the city,
You shall dwell in the field,
And to (A)Babylon you shall go.
There you shall be delivered;
There the (B)Lord will (C)redeem you
From the hand of your enemies.
Jeremiah 51:63-64
New King James Version
63 Now it shall be, when you have finished reading this book, (A)that you shall tie a stone to it and throw it out into the Euphrates. 64 Then you shall say, ‘Thus Babylon shall sink and not rise from the catastrophe that I will bring upon her. And they shall be weary.’ ”
Thus far are the words of Jeremiah.

137 By the rivers of Babylon,
There we sat down, yea, we wept
When we remembered Zion.
