43 Her cities have become as an object of horror,
    a dry land and a wilderness,[a]
a land in which no person lives,
    nor does a son of humankind pass through it.
44 And I will punish Bel in Babylon,
    and I will wrench out from his mouth what he has swallowed.[b]
And the nations will not stream towards him any longer

45 Come out from her midst, my people,
    and save each one his life
    from the burning anger of[d] Yahweh.
