Jeremiah 50:2-4
Contemporary English Version
2 Raise the signal flags;
shout so all nations can hear—
Babylon will be captured!
Marduk,[a] Babylon's god,
will be ashamed and terrified,
and his idols broken.
3 The attack on the Babylonians
will come from the north;
they and their animals will run,
leaving the land empty.
Israel and Judah Will Return to Their Land
4 The Lord said:
People of Israel and Judah,
when these things happen
you will weep, and together
you will return to your land
and worship me,
the Lord your God.
