Jeremiah 51:43
41 How Sheshach has been captured! The praise of all the earth has been seized. What a horror Babylon has become among the nations!
42 The sea has come up over Babylon; she is covered in turbulent waves.
Her cities have become a desolation, a dry and arid land, a land where no one lives, where no son of man passes through.
44 I will punish Bel in Babylon. I will make him spew out what he swallowed. The nations will no longer stream to him; even the wall of Babylon will fall.
45 Come out of her, My people! Save your lives, each of you, from the fierce anger of the LORD.
Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
