13 So I will bring on that land all My words which I have pronounced against it, all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah has prophesied concerning all the nations.
14 a(For many nations band great kings shall cbe served by them also; dand I will repay them according to their deeds and according to the works of their own hands.)’ ”
Judgment on the Nations
15 For thus says the Lord God of Israel to me: “Take this awine cup of fury from My hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send you, to drink it.
16 And athey will drink and stagger and go mad because of the sword that I will send among them.”
17 Then I took the cup from the Lord’s hand, and made all the nations drink, to whom the Lord had sent me:
18 Jerusalem and the cities of Judah, its kings and its princes, to make them aa desolation, an astonishment, a hissing, and ba curse, as it is this day;
19 Pharaoh king of Egypt, his servants, his princes, and all his people;
20 all the mixed multitude, all the kings of athe land of Uz, all the kings of the land of the bPhilistines (namely, Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and cthe remnant of Ashdod);
21 aEdom, Moab, and the people of Ammon;
22 all the kings of aTyre, all the kings of Sidon, and the kings of the coastlands which are across the bsea;
23 aDedan, Tema, Buz, and all who are in the farthest corners;
24 all the kings of Arabia and all the kings of the amixed multitude who dwell in the desert;
25 all the kings of Zimri, all the kings of aElam, and all the kings of the bMedes;
26 aall the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world which are on the face of the earth. Also the king of1 Sheshach shall drink after them.
27 “Therefore you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: a“Drink, bbe drunk, and vomit! Fall and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.” ’
28 And it shall be, if they refuse to take the cup from your hand to drink, then you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts: “You shall certainly drink!
29 For behold, aI begin to bring calamity on the city bwhich is called by My name, and should you be utterly unpunished? You shall not be unpunished, for cI will call for a sword on all the inhabitants of the earth,” says the Lord of hosts.’
30 “Therefore prophesy against them all these words, and say to them:
‘The Lord will aroar from on high,
And utter His voice from bHis holy habitation;
He will roar mightily against cHis fold.
He will give da shout, as those who tread the grapes,
Against all the inhabitants of the earth.
‘The Lord will aroar from on high,
And utter His voice from bHis holy habitation;
He will roar mightily against cHis fold.
He will give da shout, as those who tread the grapes,
Against all the inhabitants of the earth.
31 A noise will come to the ends of the earth—
For the Lord has aa controversy with the nations;
bHe will plead His case with all flesh.
He will give those who are wicked to the sword,’ says the Lord.”

32 Thus says the Lord of hosts:
“Behold, disaster shall go forth
From nation to nation,
And aa great whirlwind shall be raised up
From the farthest parts of the earth.
“Behold, disaster shall go forth
From nation to nation,
And aa great whirlwind shall be raised up
From the farthest parts of the earth.
33 aAnd at that day the slain of the Lord shall be from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth. They shall not be blamented, cor gathered, or buried; they shall become refuse on the ground.
34 “Wail,a shepherds, and cry!
Roll about in the ashes,
You leaders of the flock!
For the days of your slaughter and your dispersions are fulfilled;
You shall fall like a precious vessel.
Roll about in the ashes,
You leaders of the flock!
For the days of your slaughter and your dispersions are fulfilled;
You shall fall like a precious vessel.
