48:6 They will hear, ‘Run! Save yourselves!
Even if you must be like a lonely shrub in the desert!’
46:5 What do I see?”
“The soldiers
They are retreating.
They have been defeated.
They are overcome with terror;
they desert quickly
without looking back.
49:8 Turn and flee! Take up refuge in remote places,
you people who live in Dedan.
For I will bring disaster on the descendants of Esau.
I have decided it is time for me to punish them.
51:6 Get out of Babylonia quickly, you foreign people.
Flee to save your lives.
Do not let yourselves be killed because of her sins.
For it is time for the Lord to wreak his revenge.
He will pay Babylonia
46:21 Even her mercenaries
will prove to be like pampered,
For they too will turn and run away.
They will not stand their ground
when
the time for them to be punished.
49:30 The Lord says,
Take up refuge in remote places.
For King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon has laid out plans to attack you.
He has formed his strategy on how to defeat you.”
