你們要剷除在巴比倫撒種的和收割的。為躲避敵人的刀劍，人們各自逃到故土親族那裡。

後來擴展到亞述，在那裡建立了尼尼微、利河伯、迦拉各城，

人們都投奔親族，逃回故鄉，好像被追趕的鹿，又如走散的羊。

住在河邊、擁有財寶的巴比倫人啊，你們的結局到了，你們的末日來了。」

可是，我看見的是什麼呢？他們驚慌後退，勇士敗逃，不敢回頭，驚恐不安。這是耶和華說的。

你的臣僕像蝗蟲，你的將領像成群的蚱蜢。牠們寒日聚集在牆上，太陽一出來就飛走了，無人知道牠們的行蹤。

你們要離開巴比倫，從迦勒底人那裡逃出來。你們要高聲歡呼，向普天下傳揚、宣告：「耶和華救贖了祂的僕人雅各！」

眾多的計謀使你疲憊不堪，讓那些觀天象、每月說預言的占星家來救你脫離將臨的災禍吧！

巴比倫的勇士不再作戰，躲在堡壘裡，士氣消沉，像婦女一樣無力；巴比倫的房屋被火焚燒，城門被攻破。
