Jeremiah 25:24-36
24and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of 1ArabiaH6152 and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the 23foreignH6154 peopleH6154 who dwellH7931 in the desertH4057; 25and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of ZimriH2174, allH3605 the kingsH4428 of 4ElamH5867 and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of 5MediaH4074; 26and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the northH6828, nearH7138 and farH7350, oneH376 with anotherH251; and 6allH3605 the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776 whichH834 are upon the faceH6440 of the groundH127, and the kingH4428 of 78SheshachH8347 shall drinkH8354 afterH310 them.
27“You shall sayH559 to them, ‘ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, “9DrinkH8354, be drunkH7937, vomitH7006, fallH5307 and riseH6965 noH3808 more becauseH4480H6440 of the 10swordH2719 whichH834 I will sendH7971 amongH996 you.”’ 28And it will be, ifH3588 they 11refuseH3985 to takeH3947 the cupH3563 from your handH3027 to drinkH8354, then you will sayH559 to them, ‘ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635: “12You shall surelyH8354 drinkH8354! 29For beholdH2009, I am 13beginningH2490 to workH7489 calamityH7489 in this cityH5892 whichH834 is 14calledH7121 by My nameH8034, and shall you be completelyH5352 freeH5352 from punishmentH5352? You will not be freeH5352 from punishmentH5352; for 15I am summoningH7121 a swordH2719 againstH5921 allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of the earthH776,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635.’
30“Therefore you shall prophesyH5012 againstH413 them allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697, and you shall sayH559 to them, ‘The 16LordH3068 will 17roarH7580 from on highH4791 And utterH5414 His voiceH6963 from His holyH6944 habitationH4583; He will roarH7580 mightilyH7580 againstH5921 His 18foldH5116. He will shoutH1959 like those who treadH1869 the grapes, AgainstH413 allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of the earthH776.31A clamorH7588 has comeH935 to the endH7097 of the earthH776, BecauseH3588 the LordH3068 has 19a controversyH7379 with the nationsH1471. He is enteringH8199 into 20judgmentH8199 with allH3605 fleshH1320; As for the wickedH7563, He has givenH5414 them to the swordH2719,’ declaresH5002 the LordH3068.”
32ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, “BeholdH2009, evilH7463 is goingH3318 forthH3318 From 21nationH1471 to nationH1471, And a greatH1419 22stormH5591 is being stirredH5782 up From the remotestH3411 partsH3411 of the earthH776.
33“Those 23slainH2491 by the LordH3068 on that dayH3117 will be from one endH7097 of the earthH776 to the 24otherH7097H776. They will 25not be lamentedH5594, gatheredH622 or buriedH6912; they will be like 26dungH1828 on the faceH6440 of the groundH127.34WailH3213, you shepherdsH7462, and cryH2199; And 27wallowH6428 in ashes, you mastersH117 of the flockH6629; For the daysH3117 of your 28slaughterH2873 and your dispersionsH8600 29have comeH4390, And you will fallH5307 like a choiceH2532 vesselH3627.3530FlightH4498 will perishH6 from the shepherdsH7462, And escapeH6413 from the mastersH117 of the flockH6629.36Hear the soundH6963 of the cryH6818 of the shepherdsH7462, And the wailingH3215 of the mastersH117 of the flockH6629! For the LordH3068 is destroyingH7703 their pastureH4830,
