Context of Jeremiah 25:19
17So I took the cup from the Lord's hand. In my vision, I took it to the nations where the Lord sent me. I made them drink the wine of his punishment. 18I went to Jerusalem and the other cities of Judah. I made the people of Judah, its kings and its officers drink from the cup. It was to destroy them all. Judah would become a terrible place. People would see that its people are very foolish. They would use their name as a curse. That is already happening today. I also took the cup of punishment to these people: Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and his officers, his servants and his people; 20the foreign people who lived in Egypt; all the kings of Uz; all the kings of the Philistines (They were the kings of Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron and the people who were still living in Ashdod); 21the people of Edom, Moab and Ammon;
