Isaiah 52:11; Jeremiah 50:8; Jeremiah 51:6; Jeremiah 51:45; Zechariah 2:6–7

11  wDepart, depart, go out from there;

touch no unclean thing;

go out from the midst of her; purify yourselves,

xyou who bear the vessels of the Lord.


vFlee from the midst of Babylon, vand go out of the land of the Chaldeans, and be as male goats before the flock.


uFlee from the midst of Babylon;

let every one save his life!

vBe not cut off in her punishment,

wfor this is the time of the Lord’s vengeance,

the repayment he is rendering her.


45  Go out of the midst of her, umy people!

Let every one save his life

from vthe fierce anger of the Lord!


Up! Up! vFlee from the land of the north, declares the Lord. For I have wspread you abroad as the four winds of the heavens, declares the Lord. xUp! Escape to Zion, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon.
