10  Writhe and groan,¹ O daughter of Zion,

like a woman in labor,

for now you shall go out from the city

and dwell in the open country;

you shall go to Babylon.

There you shall be rescued;

^bthere the Lord will redeem you

from the hand of your enemies.

9  Your hand shall be lifted up over your adversaries,

and all your enemies shall be cut off.

15  The Lord has taken away the judgments against you;

he has cleared away your enemies.

The King of Israel, the Lord, is ^xin your midst;

you shall never again fear evil.
