Jeremiah 25:15-22

15This is what the Lord God of Israel said to me: Take from my hand this cup filled with the wine of my fury, and make all the nations to whom I’m sending you drink from it.

16When they drink from it, they will stagger and go insane because of the wars that I’m going to send them.

17So I took the cup from the Lord’s hand. I made all the nations to whom the Lord sent me drink from it:

18Jerusalem and the cities of Judah as well as its kings and officials. When they drank from it, they became wastelands and ruins, something ridiculed and cursed, until today.

19⌞I also made these people drink from it:⌟ Pharaoh king of Egypt, his servants, officials, all his people,

20and all the foreign people living among them; all the kings of the land of Uz; all the kings of Philistia, those from the cities of Ashkelon, Gaza, and Ekron, and the people left in Ashdod;

21Edom, Moab, and the people of Ammon;

22all the kings of Tyre and Sidon, and the kings on the seacoast;
