Jeremiah 51:48-50
Amplified Bible
48
“Then heaven and earth and all that is in them
Will shout and sing for joy over Babylon,
For the [a]destroyers will come against her from the north,”
Says the Lord.(A)
49
Indeed Babylon is to fall for the slain of Israel,
As also for Babylon the slain of all the earth have fallen.
50
You who have escaped the sword,
Go away! Do not stay!
Remember the Lord from far away,
And let [desolate] Jerusalem come into your mind.
