Jeremiah 25:15-29

15For thisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, saysH559 to me: “TakeH3947 thisH2088 1cupH3563 of the wineH3196 of wrathH2534 from My handH3027 and giveH8248 it to allH3605 the nationsH1471 to whomH834 I sendH7971 you, toH8248 drinkH8248 from it. 16Then they will 2drinkH8354 and loudlyH1607 vomitH1607 and actH1984 insanelyH1984 becauseH4480H6440 of the swordH2719 that I am going to sendH7971 amongH996 them.”

17So I tookH3947 the cupH3563 from the Lord’sH3068 handH3027 and 3gaveH8248 it to allH3605 the nationsH1471 to whomH834 the LordH3068 sentH7971 me, toH8248 drinkH8248 from it: 18To 4JerusalemH3389 and the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and its kingsH4428 and its officialsH8269, to makeH5414 them placesH2723 ofH2723 ruinsH2723, objectsH8047 ofH8047 horrorH8047, 5hissingH8322, and a curseH7045, as it is thisH2088 dayH3117; 19To 6PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, his servantsH5650, his officialsH8269, and allH3605 his peopleH5971; 20and to allH3605 the 7foreignH6154 8peopleH6154, allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the 9landH776 of UzH5780, allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the landH776 of the 10PhilistinesH6430 (that is, AshkelonH831, GazaH5804, EkronH6138, and the remnantH7611 of 11AshdodH795); 21To 12EdomH112, 13MoabH4124, and the sonsH1121 of 14AmmonH5983; 22and to allH3605 the kingsH4428 of 15TyreH6865, allH3605 the kingsH4428 of SidonH6721, and the kingsH4428 of 16the coastlandsH339 whichH834 are beyondH5676 the seaH3220; 23and to 17DedanH1719, TemaH8485, 18BuzH938, and allH3605 who 19trimH7112 the cornersH6285 of their hair; 24and to allH3605 the kingsH4428 of 20ArabiaH6152 and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the 21foreignH6154 22peopleH6154 who liveH7931 in the desertH4057; 25and to allH3605 the kingsH4428 of ZimriH2174, allH3605 the kingsH4428 of 23ElamH5867, and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of 24MediaH4074; 26and to allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the northH6828, nearH7138 and farH7350, oneH376 with anotherH251; and 25allH3605 the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776 whichH834 are on the faceH6440 of the groundH127; and the kingH4428 of 2627SheshachH8347 shall drinkH8354 it afterH310 them.

27“And you shall sayH559 to them, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 of armiesH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 saysH559: “28DrinkH8354, beH7937 drunkH7937, vomitH7006, fallH5307 down, and do not getH6965 upH6965, becauseH4480H6440 of the 29swordH2719 whichH834 I am sendingH7971 amongH996 you.”’ 28And ifH3588 they 30refuseH3985 to takeH3947 the cupH3563 from your handH3027 to drinkH8354, then you shall sayH559 to them, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 of armiesH6635 saysH559: “31You shall certainlyH8354 drinkH8354! 29For beholdH2009, I am 32beginningH2490 to inflictH7489 disasterH7489 on this cityH5892 whichH834 is 33calledH7121 by My nameH8034, so should you beH5352 completelyH5352 freeH5352 fromH5352 punishmentH5352? You will not beH5352 freeH5352 fromH5352 punishmentH5352, for 34I am summoningH7121 a swordH2719 againstH5921 allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of the earthH776,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068 of armiesH6635.’
