Jeremiah 50:1-8

1This is the word that the LORD spoke through Jeremiah the prophet concerning Babylon and the land of the Chaldeans:1

2“Announce and declare to the nations;lift up a banner and proclaim it;hold nothing back when you say,‘Babylon is captured;Bel is put to shame;Marduk is shattered,her images are disgraced,her idols are broken in pieces.’
3For a nation from the north will come against her;it will make her land a desolation.No one will live in it;both man and beast will flee.”
4“In those days and at that time,declares the LORD,the children of Israel and the children of Judahwill come together, weeping as they come,and will seek the LORD their God.5They will ask the way to Zionand turn their faces toward it.They will come and join themselves to the LORDin an everlasting covenantthat will never be forgotten.
6My people are lost sheep;their shepherds have led them astray,causing them to roam the mountains.They have wandered from mountain to hill;they have forgotten their resting place.7All who found them devoured them,and their enemies said,‘We are not guilty,for they have sinned against the LORD, their true pasture,the LORD, the hope of their fathers.’
8Flee from the midst of Babylon;depart from the land of the Chaldeans;be like the he-goats that lead the flock.
