Jeremiah 25:17

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;
