Jeremiah 25:8-38

8“ThereforeH3651 thisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 of armiesH6635 saysH559: ‘BecauseH3282H834 you have not obeyedH8085 My wordsH1697, 9beholdH2009, I will 1sendH7971 and takeH3947 allH3605 the familiesH4940 of the northH6828,’ declaresH5002 the LordH3068, ‘and I will send to NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, 2My servantH5650, and will bringH935 them againstH5921 thisH2088 landH776 and againstH5921 its inhabitantsH3427 and againstH5921 allH3605 theseH428 surroundingH5439 nationsH1471; and I will 3completelyH2763 destroyH2763 them and 4makeH7760 them an objectH8047 ofH8047 horrorH8047 and 5hissingH8322, and an everlastingH5769 placeH2723 ofH2723 ruinsH2723. 10Moreover, I will 6eliminateH6 from them the voiceH6963 of jubilationH8342 and the voiceH6963 of joyH8057, the voiceH6963 of the groomH2860 and the voiceH6963 of the brideH3618, the 7soundH6963 of the millstonesH7347 and the lightH216 of the lampH5216. 118ThisH2088 entireH3605 landH776 will be a placeH2723 ofH2723 ruinsH2723 and an objectH8047 ofH8047 horrorH8047, and theseH428 nationsH1471 will serveH5647 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 for 9seventyH7657 yearsH8141.

12‘Then it will be 10when seventyH7657 yearsH8141 are completedH4390 I will 11punishH6485 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 and that nationH1471,’ declaresH5002 the LordH3068, ‘for their wrongdoingH5771, and the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778; and 12I will makeH7760 it an everlastingH5769 desolationH8077. 13I will bringH935 upon that landH776 allH3605 My wordsH1697 whichH834 I have pronouncedH1696 againstH5921 it, allH3605 that is writtenH3789 in 13thisH2088 bookH5612 whichH834 JeremiahH3414 has prophesiedH5012 againstH5921 14allH3605 the nationsH1471. 14(15For 16manyH7227 nationsH1471 and greatH1419 kingsH4428 will makeH5647 slavesH5647 of them, evenH1571 them; and I will 17repayH7999 them according to their deedsH6467 and according to the workH4639 of their handsH3027.)’”

15For thisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, saysH559 to me: “TakeH3947 thisH2088 18cupH3563 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 19drinkH8354 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 20gaveH8248 it to allH3605 the nationsH1471 to whomH834 the LordH3068 sentH7971 me, toH8248 drinkH8248 from it: 18To 21JerusalemH3389 and the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and its kingsH4428 and its officialsH8269, to makeH5414 them placesH2723 ofH2723 ruinsH2723, objectsH8047 ofH8047 horrorH8047, 22hissingH8322, and a curseH7045, as it is thisH2088 dayH3117; 19To 23PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, his servantsH5650, his officialsH8269, and allH3605 his peopleH5971; 20and to allH3605 the 24foreignH6154 25peopleH6154, allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the 26landH776 of UzH5780, allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the landH776 of the 27PhilistinesH6430 (that is, AshkelonH831, GazaH5804, EkronH6138, and the remnantH7611 of 28AshdodH795); 21To 29EdomH112, 30MoabH4124, and the sonsH1121 of 31AmmonH5983; 22and to allH3605 the kingsH4428 of 32TyreH6865, allH3605 the kingsH4428 of SidonH6721, and the kingsH4428 of 33the coastlandsH339 whichH834 are beyondH5676 the seaH3220; 23and to 34DedanH1719, TemaH8485, 35BuzH938, and allH3605 who 36trimH7112 the cornersH6285 of their hair; 24and to allH3605 the kingsH4428 of 37ArabiaH6152 and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the 38foreignH6154 39peopleH6154 who liveH7931 in the desertH4057; 25and to allH3605 the kingsH4428 of ZimriH2174, allH3605 the kingsH4428 of 40ElamH5867, and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of 41MediaH4074; 26and to allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the northH6828, nearH7138 and farH7350, oneH376 with anotherH251; and 42allH3605 the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776 whichH834 are on the faceH6440 of the groundH127; and the kingH4428 of 4344SheshachH8347 shall drinkH8354 it afterH310 them.

27“And you shall sayH559 to them, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 of armiesH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 saysH559: “45DrinkH8354, beH7937 drunkH7937, vomitH7006, fallH5307 down, and do not getH6965 upH6965, becauseH4480H6440 of the 46swordH2719 whichH834 I am sendingH7971 amongH996 you.”’ 28And ifH3588 they 47refuseH3985 to takeH3947 the cupH3563 from your handH3027 to drinkH8354, then you shall sayH559 to them, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 of armiesH6635 saysH559: “48You shall certainlyH8354 drinkH8354! 29For beholdH2009, I am 49beginningH2490 to inflictH7489 disasterH7489 on this cityH5892 whichH834 is 50calledH7121 by My nameH8034, so should you beH5352 completelyH5352 freeH5352 fromH5352 punishmentH5352? You will not beH5352 freeH5352 fromH5352 punishmentH5352, for 51I 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 52LordH3068 will 53roarH7580 from on highH4791 And raiseH5414 His voiceH6963 from His holyH6944 dwellingH4583; He will roarH7580 forcefullyH7580 againstH5921 His 54foldH5116. 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 55a controversyH7379 with the nationsH1471. He is enteringH8199 intoH8199 56judgmentH8199 with 57humanityH1320; 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 58nationH1471 to nationH1471, And a greatH1419 59stormH5591 is being stirredH5782 upH5782 From the remotestH3411 partsH3411 of the earthH776.

33“Those 60putH2491 toH2491 deathH2491 by the LordH3068 on that dayH3117 will be from one endH7097 of the earthH776 to the 61otherH7097H776. They will 62not be mournedH5594, gatheredH622, or buriedH6912; they will be like 63dungH1828 on the faceH6440 of the groundH127.34WailH3213, you shepherdsH7462, and cryH2199 outH2199; 64WallowH6428 in the dust, you mastersH117 of the flockH6629; For the daysH3117 of your 65slaughterH2873 and your dispersionsH8600 66have comeH4390, And you will fallH5307 like a preciousH2532 vesselH3627.3567There will be 68no 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 pastureH4830,37And the peacefulH7965 69grazingH5116 placesH5116 areH1826 devastatedH1826 BecauseH4480H6440 of the 70fierceH2740 angerH639 of the LordH3068.38He has leftH5800 His hidingH5520 placeH5520 71like the lionH3715; For their landH776 has becomeH1961 a horrorH8047 BecauseH4480H6440 of the fiercenessH2740 of the 72oppressingH3238 sword And becauseH4480H6440 of His fierceH2740 angerH639.”
