42. The sea is come up upon Babylon; she is covered with the multitude of the waves thereof.
43. Her cities were devastated, the land dry and desert, a land in which no man dwells, neither shall any son of man pass thereby.
44. And I will visit Bel himself in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he has swallowed up; and the Gentiles shall not flow together any more unto him; and the wall of Babylon shall fall.
45. Come out of the midst of her, my people, and save each one his life from the fierce anger of the Lord.
46. And lest your heart faint, and ye fear because of the news that shall be heard in the land; in one year shall the news come, and after that in the next year shall come the rumour, and then shall come the violence in the land, and the ruler over him who rules.
47. Therefore, behold, the days come that I will visit the graven images of Babylon; and her whole land shall be ashamed, and all her dead shall fall in the midst of her.
