Jeremiah 51:6-10

Jeremiah 51:6-10

[6] Flee out  of the midst  of Babylon,  and deliver  every man  his soul:  be not cut off  in her iniquity;  for this is the time  of the LORD'S  vengeance;  he will render  unto her a recompence.  [7] Babylon  hath been a golden  cup  in the LORD'S  hand,  that made all the earth  drunken:  the nations  have drunken  of her wine;  therefore the nations  are mad.  [8] Babylon  is suddenly  fallen  and destroyed:  howl  for her; take  balm  for her pain,  if so be she may be healed.  [9] We would have healed  Babylon,  but she is not healed:  forsake  every one  into his own country:  for her judgment  reacheth  unto heaven,  and is lifted up  even to the skies.  [10] hath brought forth  our righteousness:  come,  and let us declare  in Zion  the work  our God.
