13 Then the Lord said to him, “Know for certain that for four hundred years your descendants will be strangers in a country not their own and that they will be enslaved and mistreated there. 14 But I will punish the nation they serve as slaves, and afterward they will come out with great possessions. Genesis 15:13-14

"You who have escaped from the sword, go, do not stand still! Remember the LORD from far away, and let Jerusalem come into your mind. Jeremiah 51:50

For Israel and Judah have not been abandoned by their God, the LORD of Hosts, though their land is full of guilt before the Holy One of Israel.” 6Flee from Babylon! Escape with your lives! Do not be destroyed in her punishment. For this is the time of the LORD’s vengeance; He will pay her what she deserves. 7Babylon was a gold cup in the hand of the LORD, making the whole earth drunk. The nations drank her wine; therefore the nations have gone mad. Jeremiah 51:5-7

If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget its skill! Psalms 137:5

Yet I will leave a remnant, for some of you will escape the sword when you are scattered among the nations and throughout the lands. Ezekiel 6:8
