A Message Concerning Babylon

43 Her cities have become, an astonishment, A land parched up, and a waste plain, - A land wherein shall no man dwell, Nor pass through them a son of the earth-born! 44 So will I bring punishment upon Bel in Babylon, And will bring forth what he hath swallowed out of his mouth, And the nations shall stream unto him no more, - Even the wall of Babylon hath fallen! 45 Come ye forth out of her midst O my people, And deliver ye every man his own life, - Because of the glow of the anger of Yahweh.
