Isaiah 5:21
New International Version
21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes(A)
and clever in their own sight.
Jeremiah 25:18-27
New International Version
18 Jerusalem(A) and the towns of Judah, its kings and officials, to make them a ruin(B) and an object of horror and scorn,(C) a curse[a](D)—as they are today;(E) 19 Pharaoh king(F) of Egypt,(G) his attendants, his officials and all his people, 20 and all the foreign people there; all the kings of Uz;(H) all the kings of the Philistines(I) (those of Ashkelon,(J) Gaza,(K) Ekron, and the people left at Ashdod); 21 Edom,(L) Moab(M) and Ammon;(N) 22 all the kings of Tyre(O) and Sidon;(P) the kings of the coastlands(Q) across the sea; 23 Dedan,(R) Tema,(S) Buz(T) and all who are in distant places[b];(U) 24 all the kings of Arabia(V) and all the kings of the foreign people(W) who live in the wilderness; 25 all the kings of Zimri,(X) Elam(Y) and Media;(Z) 26 and all the kings of the north,(AA) near and far, one after the other—all the kingdoms(AB) on the face of the earth. And after all of them, the king of Sheshak[c](AC) will drink it too.
27 “Then tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Drink, get drunk(AD) and vomit, and fall to rise no more because of the sword(AE) I will send among you.’
