Jeremiah 51:50-52

Contemporary English Version

⁵⁰ My people, you escaped death
    when Jerusalem fell.
Now you live far from home,
but you should trust me
    and think about Jerusalem.
Leave Babylon! Don't stay!

⁵¹ You feel ashamed and disgraced,
because foreigners have entered
    my sacred temple.
⁵² Soon I will send a war
    to punish Babylon's idols
and leave its wounded people
    moaning everywhere.
