And lest your heart faint, and ye fear for the rumour that shall be heard in the land; a rumour shall both come one year, and after that in another year shall come a rumour, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler.

The verse 46 is found in chapter 51 of Jeremiah. The Jews are commanded to leave Babylon so as not to participate in its sin or perish with it. Seraiah must read the scroll and throw it into the Euphrates as a sign that Babylon will sink and not rise again. The final act turns the written prophecy into a visible symbol of the irreversibility of imperial judgment.

Euer Herz möchte sonst weich werden und verzagen vor dem Geschrei, das man im Lande hören wird; denn es wird ein Geschrei übers Jahr gehen und darnach im andern Jahr auch ein Geschrei über Gewalt im Lande und wird ein Fürst wider den andern sein.
Y porque no desmaye vuestro corazón, y temáis a causa de la fama que se oirá por la tierra, en un año vendrá la fama, y después en otro año el rumor, y la violencia en la tierra, y el enseñoreador sobre el que enseñorea.
No desfallezca su corazón ni tengan miedo por las noticias que se oigan en la tierra. Un año vendrá una noticia y al siguiente año otra noticia; habrá violencia en la tierra y gobernante contra gobernante.
Que votre coeur ne se trouble point, et ne vous effrayez pas Des bruits qui se répandront dans le pays; Car cette année surviendra un bruit, Et l'année suivante un autre bruit, La violence régnera dans le pays, Et un dominateur s'élèvera contre un autre dominateur.
E guardatevi che talora il vostro cuore non si avvilisca, e che voi non siate spaventati per le novelle che si udiranno nel paese; quando novelle verranno un anno, e dopo quello altre novelle un altro anno; e vi sarà violenza nel paese, dominatore contro a dominatore.
E para que porventura não se enterneça o vosso coração, e não temais pelo rumor que se ouvir na terra; porque virá num ano um rumor, e depois noutro ano outro rumor; e haverá violência na terra, dominador contra dominador.
不要因境內所聽見的風聲 心驚膽怯或懼怕; 因為這年有風聲傳來, 那年也有風聲傳來; 境內有殘暴的事, 官長攻擊官長。
