8. “People of Israel, run away from Babylonia! Leave the country! Be the first to leave!
9. I am going to stir up a group of strong nations in the north and make them attack Babylonia. They will line up in battle against the country and conquer it. They are skilful hunters, shooting arrows that never miss the mark.
10. Babylonia will be looted, and those who loot it will take everything they want. I, the Lord, have spoken.”
