Jeremiah 51:6-9

6Flee outH5127 of the midstH8432 of BabylonH894, and deliverH4422 every manH376 his soulH5315: be not cut offH1826 in her iniquityH5771; for this is the timeH6256 of Yhwh'sH3068 vengeanceH5360; he will renderH7999 unto her a recompenceH1576.

7BabylonH894 hath been a goldenH2091 cupH3563 in Yhwh'sH3068 handH3027, that made all the earthH776 drunkenH7937: the nationsH1471 have drunkenH8354 of her wineH3196; therefore the nationsH1471 are madH1984.

8BabylonH894 is suddenlyH6597 fallenH5307 and destroyedH7665: howlH3213 for her; takeH3947 balmH6875 for her painH4341, if so be she may be healedH7495.

9We would have healedH7495 BabylonH894, but she is not healedH7495: forsakeH5800 her, and let us goH3212 every oneH376 into his own countryH776: for her judgmentH4941 reachethH5060 unto heavenH8064, and is lifted upH5375 even to the skiesH7834.
