(A)Declare and proclaim among the nations.
Proclaim it and (B)lift up a flag,
Do not conceal it. Say,
(C)Babylon has been captured,
(D)Bel has been put to shame, [a]Marduk has been [b]shattered;
Her (E)idols have been put to shame, her images have been shattered.’

For a nation has come up against her from the (F)north; it will make her land (G)an object of horror, and there will be (H)no inhabitant in it. Whether people or animals, they have wandered off, they have gone!

“In those days and at that time,” declares the Lord, “the sons of Israel will come, they and the sons of Judah (I)as well; they will go along (J)weeping as they go, and it will be (K)the Lord their God whom they will seek.

“Announce and proclaim(A) among the nations,
    lift up a banner(B) and proclaim it;
    keep nothing back, but say,
‘Babylon will be captured;(C)
    Bel(D) will be put to shame,(E)
    Marduk(F) filled with terror.
Her images will be put to shame
    and her idols(G) filled with terror.’
A nation from the north(H) will attack her
    and lay waste her land.
No one will live(I) in it;
    both people and animals(J) will flee away.

“In those days, at that time,”
    declares the Lord,
“the people of Israel and the people of Judah together(K)
    will go in tears(L) to seek(M) the Lord their God.

Declare ye among the nations, and publish, and set up a standard; publish, and conceal not: say, Babylon is taken, Bel is confounded, Merodach is broken in pieces; her idols are confounded, her images are broken in pieces.

For out of the north there cometh up a nation against her, which shall make her land desolate, and none shall dwell therein: they shall remove, they shall depart, both man and beast.

In those days, and in that time, saith the Lord, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Judah together, going and weeping: they shall go, and seek the Lord their God.
