Jeremiah 51:45-47

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁴⁵ Come out of her, my people!
    Save your lives, each of you,
    from the fierce anger of the Lord!
⁴⁶ Do not be fainthearted or fearful
    at the rumors heard in the land—
one year one rumor comes,
    the next year another,
rumors of violence in the land
    and of ruler against ruler.

⁴⁷ Assuredly, the days are coming
    when I will punish the images of Babylon;
her whole land shall be put to shame,
    and all her slain shall fall in her midst.
