10 Cry out, you people of Jerusalem,[a] and feel the pain,
    as if you were giving birth.
You must go out of the city
    and live in the fields.
You will go away to Babylon,
    but you will also be saved from that place.
The Lord will come and rescue you there.
    He will take you away from your enemies.

The Lord Will Destroy the Other Nations

11 Many nations have come to fight against you.
    They say, “Look, there is Zion!
    Let’s attack her!”

12 They have their plans,
    but they don’t know what the Lord is planning.
He brought them here for a special purpose.
    They will be crushed like grain on a threshing floor.
