כֹּֽה־אָמַ֧ר יְהוָ֛ה גֹּאַלְכֶ֖ם קְד֣וֹשׁ יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל לְמַעַנְכֶ֞ם שִׁלַּ֣חְתִּי בָבֶ֗לָה וְהוֹרַדְתִּ֤י בָֽרִיחִים֙ כֻּלָּ֔ם וְכַשְׂדִּ֖ים בָּאֳנִיּ֥וֹת רִנָּתָֽם׃
你們的救贖者永恆者,以色列的聖者,這樣說:「為了你們的緣故,我已差人往巴比倫去;我要使他們全都坐划槳的船被押送下去,迦勒底人也要坐他們曾在上面歡呼的船隻被押送下去。」

About this, our sages, of blessed memory, stated,119See Midrash Bamidbar Rabba 7:10; Sifri Bamidbar 84; 161:5 and elsewhere. “The Jewish people are beloved to the Holy One, blessed is He, and wherever they were exiled, the Indwelling Presence of HaShem-יהו״ה accompanied them. When they were exiled in Egypt, the Shechinah-שכינה was with them, as it states,120Samuel I 2:27 ‘Did I not appear to the family of your ancestor when they were in Egypt, [enslaved] to the house of Pharaoh?’ Similarly, it is written,121Genesis 46:4 ‘I shall descend with You to Egypt.’ When they were exiled to Babylon, the Shechinah was with them. This is as stated,122Isaiah 43:14 ‘Because of you I was sent to Babylon.’ When they were exiled to Elam, the Shechinah, was with them. This is as stated,123Jeremiah 49:38 ‘I will place My throne in Elam.’
