Jeremiah 25:15-28

15For thus says Adonai, the God of Israel, to me: “Take this cup of the wine of fury from My hand, and make all the nations to whom I am sending you drink it.

16They will drink, and reel to and fro, and be like madmen, because of the sword that I will send among them.

17Then I took the cup from Adonai’s hand, and made all the nations drink, to whom Adonai had sent me:

18Jerusalem and the cities of Judah, with its kings and its princes—to make them an appalling horror and hissing, a curse as it is this day;

19Pharaoh king of Egypt, with his servants, his princes and all his people;

20and all the mingled people, all the kings of the land of Uz, all the kings of the land of the Philistines, Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;

21Edom, Moab, and Ammon’s children;

22all the kings of Tyre, all the kings of Zidon, and the kings of the coastland across the sea;

23Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all who shave the corners;

24all the kings of Arabia and all the kings of the mixed people dwelling in the wilderness;

25all the kings of Zimri, all the kings of Elam and all the kings of Media;

26all the kings of the north, either far or close to another; and all the kingdoms of the world which are on the face of the earth. And the king of Sheshach will drink after them.”

27And you will say to them, thus says Adonai-Tzva’ot, the God of Israel: “Drink, be drunken, vomit, fall down and rise no more, because of the sword that I will send among you.”

28And if they refuse to take the cup at your hand to drink, then here is what you will say to them: “Thus says Adonai-Tzva’ot, you will surely drink!
