We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country: for her judgment reacheth unto heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies.

The verse 9 is found in chapter 51 of Jeremiah. God announces Babylon’s destruction through images of destructive wind, threshing, and judgment. In contrast, Israel and Judah are called to remember the Creator of all things. True security is not found in the empire or its gods, but in Yahweh, who made the earth and can bring down what appears invincible.

Wir heilen Babel; aber sie will nicht heil werden. So laßt sie fahren und laßt uns ein jeglicher in sein Land ziehen! Denn ihre Strafe reicht bis an den Himmel und langt hinauf bis an die Wolken.
Curamos a Babilonia, y no ha sanado: dejadla, y vámonos cada uno a su tierra; porque llegado ha hasta el cielo su juicio, y alzádose hasta las nubes.
«Quisimos curar a Babilonia, pero no ha sanado. Déjenla y vámonos cada uno a su tierra, porque su juicio ha llegado hasta el cielo y se ha elevado hasta las nubes».
Nous avons voulu guérir Babylone, mais elle n'a pas guéri. Abandonnons-la, et allons chacun dans son pays; Car son châtiment atteint jusqu'aux cieux, Et s'élève jusqu'aux nues.
Noi abbiam medicata Babilonia, ma non è guarita; lasciatela, e andiamocene ciascuno al suo paese; perciocchè il suo giudicio è arrivato infino al cielo, e si è alzato infino alle nuvole.
Queríamos curar Babilônia, porém ela não sarou; deixai-a, e vamo-nos cada um para a sua terra; porque o seu juízo chegou até ao céu, e se elevou até às mais altas nuvens.
我們想醫治 巴比倫 , 它卻未獲痊癒。 離開它吧!讓我們各人歸回本國, 因為它受的審判通於上天,達到穹蒼。
