43 Her cities became desolation,
a dry land, desert, uninhabited land,
through which no son of man passes.
44 I will punish Bel in Babylon—

45 Come out of her, My people!
Each of you,
save your soul from the fierce anger of Adonai.

    Run(G) for your lives!
    Run from the fierce anger(H) of the Lord.
