Jeremiah 25:24-36

24and to allH3605 the kingsH4428 of 1ArabiaH6152 and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the 2foreignH6154 3peopleH6154 who liveH7931 in the desertH4057; 25and to allH3605 the kingsH4428 of ZimriH2174, allH3605 the kingsH4428 of 4ElamH5867, and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of 5MediaH4074; 26and to allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the northH6828, nearH7138 and farH7350, oneH376 with anotherH251; and 6allH3605 the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776 whichH834 are on the faceH6440 of the groundH127; and the kingH4428 of 78SheshachH8347 shall drinkH8354 it afterH310 them.

27“And you shall sayH559 to them, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 of armiesH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 saysH559: “9DrinkH8354, beH7937 drunkH7937, vomitH7006, fallH5307 down, and do not getH6965 upH6965, becauseH4480H6440 of the 10swordH2719 whichH834 I am sendingH7971 amongH996 you.”’ 28And ifH3588 they 11refuseH3985 to takeH3947 the cupH3563 from your handH3027 to drinkH8354, then you shall sayH559 to them, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 of armiesH6635 saysH559: “12You shall certainlyH8354 drinkH8354! 29For beholdH2009, I am 13beginningH2490 to inflictH7489 disasterH7489 on this cityH5892 whichH834 is 14calledH7121 by My nameH8034, so should you beH5352 completelyH5352 freeH5352 fromH5352 punishmentH5352? You will not beH5352 freeH5352 fromH5352 punishmentH5352, for 15I am summoningH7121 a swordH2719 againstH5921 allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of the earthH776,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068 of armiesH6635.’

30“Therefore you shall prophesyH5012 againstH413 them allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697, and you shall sayH559 to them, ‘The 16LordH3068 will 17roarH7580 from on highH4791 And raiseH5414 His voiceH6963 from His holyH6944 dwellingH4583; He will roarH7580 forcefullyH7580 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 intoH8199 20judgmentH8199 with 21humanityH1320; As for the wickedH7563, He has turnedH5414 them overH5414 to the swordH2719,’ declaresH5002 the LordH3068.”

32ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 of armiesH6635 saysH559: “BeholdH2009, evilH7463 is goingH3318 outH3318 From 22nationH1471 to nationH1471, And a greatH1419 23stormH5591 is being stirredH5782 upH5782 From the remotestH3411 partsH3411 of the earthH776.

33“Those 24putH2491 toH2491 deathH2491 by the LordH3068 on that dayH3117 will be from one endH7097 of the earthH776 to the 25otherH7097H776. They will 26not be mournedH5594, gatheredH622, or buriedH6912; they will be like 27dungH1828 on the faceH6440 of the groundH127.34WailH3213, you shepherdsH7462, and cryH2199 outH2199; 28WallowH6428 in the dust, you mastersH117 of the flockH6629; For the daysH3117 of your 29slaughterH2873 and your dispersionsH8600 30have comeH4390, And you will fallH5307 like a preciousH2532 vesselH3627.3531There will be 32no sanctuaryH4498 for the shepherdsH7462, Nor escapeH6413 for 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,
