A nation from the north will attack Babylon.
    That nation will make Babylon like an empty desert.
No one will live there.
    Both men and animals will run away.”
The Lord says, “At that time
    the people of Israel and the people of Judah will be together.
They will cry and cry together,
    and together, they will go look for the Lord their God.
They will ask how to go to Zion.
    They will start to go in that direction.
They will say, ‘Come, let us join ourselves to the Lord.
    Let’s make an agreement that will last forever.
    Let’s make an agreement that we will never forget.’
