45 “Come out of her, my people,
    flee for your lives from the Lord’s anger!
46 Do this[a] now, so your heart does not grow faint,
    and so you don’t become frightened
        because of the rumors[b] that are heard in the land—
a rumor comes one year[c] and then after it
    another rumor[d] comes the next year[e]
about violence in the land
    and one ruler against another ruler.[f]
47 Therefore, look, days are coming
    when I’ll punish the idols of Babylon.
Her entire land will be put to shame,
    and all her slain will fall in her midst.
