Judgment on the Nations
15 For thus says the Lord God of Israel to me: “Take this (A)wine cup of [a]fury from My hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send you, to drink it. 16 And (B)they 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 (C)a desolation, an astonishment, a hissing, and (D)a curse, as it is this day; 19 Pharaoh king of Egypt, his servants, his princes, and all his people;

6 (A)And now I have given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, (B)My servant; and (C)the beasts of the field I have also given him to serve him. 7 (D)So all nations shall serve him and his son and his son’s son, (E)until the time of his land comes; (F)and then many nations and great kings shall make him serve them. 8 And it shall be, that the nation and kingdom which will not serve Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, and which will not put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, that nation I will punish,’ says the Lord, ‘with the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand. 9 Therefore do not listen to your prophets, your diviners, your [a]dreamers, your soothsayers, or your sorcerers, who speak to you, saying, “You shall not serve the king of Babylon.” 10 For they prophesy a (G)lie to you, to remove you far from your land; and I will drive you out, and you will perish. 11 But the nations that bring their necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serve him, I will let them remain in their own land,’ says the Lord, ‘and they shall till it and dwell in it.’ ” ’ ”

6 Now I will give all your countries into the hands of my servant(A) Nebuchadnezzar(B) king of Babylon; I will make even the wild animals subject to him.(C) 7 All nations will serve(D) him and his son and his grandson until the time(E) for his land comes; then many nations and great kings will subjugate(F) him.
8 “‘“If, however, any nation or kingdom will not serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon or bow its neck under his yoke, I will punish(G) that nation with the sword,(H) famine(I) and plague,(J) declares the Lord, until I destroy it by his hand. 9 So do not listen to your prophets,(K) your diviners,(L) your interpreters of dreams,(M) your mediums(N) or your sorcerers(O) who tell you, ‘You will not serve(P) the king of Babylon.’ 10 They prophesy lies(Q) to you that will only serve to remove(R) you far from your lands; I will banish you and you will perish. 11 But if any nation will bow its neck under the yoke(S) of the king of Babylon and serve him, I will let that nation remain in its own land to till it and to live(T) there, declares the Lord.”’”
