Jeremiah 51:49-51

International Children’s Bible

⁴⁹ “Babylon killed people from Israel.
    Babylon killed people from everywhere on earth.
    So Babylon must fall.
⁵⁰ You people escaped being killed with swords.
    You must hurry and leave Babylon.
Don’t wait!
    Remember the Lord in the faraway land where you are.
    And think about Jerusalem.”

⁵¹ “We people of Judah are disgraced.
    We have been insulted.
    We have been shamed.
This is because strangers have gone into
    the holy places of the Lord’s Temple!”
