International Standard Version
Jeremiah 51:5-7
International Standard Version
5 Indeed, Israel and Judah haven’t been
abandoned[a] by their[b] God,
by the Lord of the Heavenly Armies,
although their land is full of guilt
against the Holy One of Israel.”
6 Flee from Babylon,[c]
and each of you, escape with your life!
Don’t be destroyed[d] because of her guilt,
for it’s time for the Lord’s vengeance.
He is paying back what is due to her.
7 Babylon was a golden cup in the Lord’s hand,
making the whole earth drunk.
The nations drank her wine,
therefore the nations have gone mad.
