Jeremiah 25:12-33

12And it shall come to pass, when seventyH7657 yearsH8141 are accomplished, [that] I will visitH6485 on the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 and on that nationH1471, saith Jehovah, their iniquityH5771, and on the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778, and I will makeH7760 it perpetual desolations.

13And I will bringH935 upon that landH776 all my wordsH1697 which I have pronounced against it, all that is writtenH3789 in this bookH5612, which JeremiahH3414 hath prophesiedH5012 against all the nationsH1471.

14For manyH7227 nationsH1471 and greatH1419 kingsH4428 shall serveH5647 themselves of them alsoH1571; and I will recompense them according to their deedsH4639, and according to the workH4639 of their handsH3027.

15For thusH3541 hath Jehovah the 1GodH430 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto me: TakeH3947 the cupH3563 of the wineH3196 of this fury at my handH3027, and cause all the nationsH1471 to whom I sendH7971 thee to drinkH8248 it.

16And they shall drinkH8354, and reel to and fro, and be mad, because of the swordH2719 that I will sendH7971 among them.

17And I tookH3947 the cupH3563 at Jehovah's handH3027, and made all the nationsH1471 to drinkH8248, to whom Jehovah had sentH7971 me:

18JerusalemH3389, and the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and the kingsH4428 thereof, and the princesH8269 thereof, to makeH5414 them a wasteH2723, an astonishment, a hissing, and a curseH7045, as it is this dayH3117;

19PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and his servantsH5650, and his princesH8269, and all his peopleH5971;

20and all the mingled people, and all the kingsH4428 of the landH776 of UzH5780, and all the kingsH4428 of the landH776 of the PhilistinesH6430, and AshkelonH831, and Gazah, and EkronH6138, and the remnantH7611 of AshdodH795;

21EdomH123, and MoabH4124, and the children of AmmonH5983;

22and all the kingsH4428 of TyreH6865, and all the kingsH4428 of Zidon, and the kingsH4428 of the isles that are beyond the seaH3220;

23DedanH1719, and TemaH8485, and BuzH938, and all that have the cornersH6285 [of their beard] cutH7112 off;

24and all the kingsH4428 of ArabiaH6152, and all the kingsH4428 of the mingled people that dwellH7931 in the desert;

25and all the kingsH4428 of ZimriH2174, and all the kingsH4428 of ElamH5867, and all the kingsH4428 of the Medes;

26and all the kingsH4428 of the northH6828, farH7350 and near, oneH376 with another; and all the kingdomsH4467 of the world, which are upon the faceH6440 of the earthH776; and the kingH4428 of SheshachH8347 shall drinkH8354 after them.

27And thou shalt sayH559 unto them, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635, the 2GodH430 of IsraelH3478: DrinkH8354, and be drunken, and vomit, and fallH5307, and riseH6965 no more, because of the swordH2719 that I will sendH7971 among you.

28And it shall beH1961, if they refuseH3985 to takeH3947 the cupH3563 from thy handH3027 to drinkH8354, then shalt thou sayH559 unto them, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635: Ye shall certainly drinkH8354.

29For behold, I beginH2490 to bring evilH7489 on the cityH5892 that is calledH7121 by my nameH8034, and should ye be altogether unpunishedH5352? Ye shall not be unpunishedH5352; for I callH7121 for a swordH2719 upon all the inhabitantsH3427 of the earthH776, saith Jehovah of hostsH6635.

30And thou, prophesyH5012 unto them all these wordsH1697, and sayH559 unto them, Jehovah will roarH7580 from on highH4791, and utter his voiceH6963 from his holyH6944 habitationH4583; he will mightily roarH7580 upon his dwelling-place, he will giveH5414 a shout, as they that treadH1869 [the vintage], against all the inhabitantsH3427 of the earthH776.

31The noise shall comeH935 to the endH7097 of the earthH776: for Jehovah hath a controversy with the nationsH1471, he entereth into judgmentH8199 with all fleshH1320; as for the wickedH7563, he will giveH5414 them up to the swordH2719, saith Jehovah.

32ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635: Behold, evilH7451 shall goH3318 forthH3318 from nationH1471 to nationH1471, and a greatH1419 stormH5591 shall be raised up from the uttermost partsH3411 of the earthH776.

33And the slainH2491 of Jehovah shall [beH1961] at that dayH3117 from [one] endH7097 of the earthH776 even unto the [other] endH7097 of the earthH776: they shall not beH1961 lamentedH5594, neither gatheredH622, nor buriedH6912; they shall beH1961 dungH1828 upon the faceH6440 of the groundH776.
