Context of Jeremiah 25:30
28But if they refuse to take the cup from your hand and drink from it, say to them, ‘This is what the Lord of Armies says: You must drink from it! 29I am going to bring disaster on the city that is named after me. Do you think you’ll go unpunished? You will not go unpunished! I’m declaring war on all those who live on earth, declares the Lord of Armies.’ “That is why you will prophesy all these things to them and say, ‘The Lord roars from above.

He will kill the wicked, declares the Lord.’ 32“This is what the Lord of Armies says: Disaster is spreading from nation to nation. A great storm is brewing from the distant corners of the earth.”
