11 You people, leave, leave; get out ·of Babylon [L from there]!
    Touch nothing that is ·unclean [defiled].
You who carry the ·Lord’s things used in worship [articles/vessels of the Lord],
    leave there and make yourselves pure.

    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 [be your rear guard].
