9 I will summon(A) all the peoples of the north(B) and my servant(C) Nebuchadnezzar(D) king of Babylon,” declares the Lord, “and I will bring them against this land and its inhabitants and against all the surrounding nations. I will completely destroy[a](E) them and make them an object of horror and scorn,(F) and an everlasting ruin.(G) 10 I will banish from them the sounds(H) of joy and gladness, the voices of bride and bridegroom,(I) the sound of millstones(J) and the light of the lamp.(K) 11 This whole country will become a desolate wasteland,(L) and these nations will serve(M) the king of Babylon seventy years.(N)
12 “But when the seventy years(O) are fulfilled, I will punish the king of Babylon(P) and his nation, the land of the Babylonians,[b] for their guilt,” declares the Lord, “and will make it desolate(Q) forever. 13 I will bring on that land all the things I have spoken against it, all that are written(R) in this book and prophesied by Jeremiah against all the nations. 14 They themselves will be enslaved(S) by many nations(T) and great kings; I will repay(U) them according to their deeds and the work of their hands.”
The Cup of God’s Wrath
15 This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, said to me: “Take from my hand this cup(V) filled with the wine of my wrath and make all the nations to whom I send(W) you drink it. 16 When they drink(X) it, they will stagger(Y) and go mad(Z) because of the sword(AA) I will send among them.”
17 So I took the cup from the Lord’s hand and made all the nations to whom he sent(AB) me drink it: 18 Jerusalem(AC) and the towns of Judah, its kings and officials, to make them a ruin(AD) and an object of horror and scorn,(AE) a curse[c](AF)—as they are today;(AG) 19 Pharaoh king(AH) of Egypt,(AI) his attendants, his officials and all his people, 20 and all the foreign people there; all the kings of Uz;(AJ) all the kings of the Philistines(AK) (those of Ashkelon,(AL) Gaza,(AM) Ekron, and the people left at Ashdod); 21 Edom,(AN) Moab(AO) and Ammon;(AP) 22 all the kings of Tyre(AQ) and Sidon;(AR) the kings of the coastlands(AS) across the sea; 23 Dedan,(AT) Tema,(AU) Buz(AV) and all who are in distant places[d];(AW) 24 all the kings of Arabia(AX) and all the kings of the foreign people(AY) who live in the wilderness; 25 all the kings of Zimri,(AZ) Elam(BA) and Media;(BB) 26 and all the kings of the north,(BC) near and far, one after the other—all the kingdoms(BD) on the face of the earth. And after all of them, the king of Sheshak[e](BE) will drink it too.
27 “Then tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Drink, get drunk(BF) and vomit, and fall to rise no more because of the sword(BG) I will send among you.’ 28 But if they refuse to take the cup from your hand and drink(BH), tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Almighty says: You must drink it! 29 See, I am beginning to bring disaster(BI) on the city that bears my Name,(BJ) and will you indeed go unpunished?(BK) You will not go unpunished, for I am calling down a sword(BL) on all(BM) who live on the earth,(BN) declares the Lord Almighty.’

The Scroll and the Lamb
5 Then I saw in the right hand of him who sat on the throne(A) a scroll with writing on both sides(B) and sealed(C) with seven seals. 2 And I saw a mighty angel(D) proclaiming in a loud voice, “Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?” 3 But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth could open the scroll or even look inside it. 4 I wept and wept because no one was found who was worthy to open the scroll or look inside. 5 Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep! See, the Lion(E) of the tribe of Judah,(F) the Root of David,(G) has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”

A Message About the Philistines
47 This is the word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the Philistines(A) before Pharaoh attacked Gaza:(B)
2 This is what the Lord says:
“See how the waters are rising in the north;(C)
they will become an overflowing torrent.
They will overflow the land and everything in it,
the towns and those who live in them.
The people will cry out;
all who dwell in the land will wail(D)
3 at the sound of the hooves of galloping steeds,
at the noise of enemy chariots(E)
and the rumble of their wheels.
Parents will not turn to help their children;
their hands will hang limp.(F)
4 For the day has come
to destroy all the Philistines
and to remove all survivors
who could help Tyre(G) and Sidon.(H)
The Lord is about to destroy the Philistines,(I)
the remnant from the coasts of Caphtor.[a](J)
5 Gaza will shave(K) her head in mourning;
Ashkelon(L) will be silenced.
You remnant on the plain,
how long will you cut(M) yourselves?

Will your wrath continue forever?’
This is how you talk,
but you do all the evil you can.”
Unfaithful Israel
6 During the reign of King Josiah,(H) the Lord said to me, “Have you seen what faithless(I) Israel has done? She has gone up on every high hill and under every spreading tree(J) and has committed adultery(K) there. 7 I thought that after she had done all this she would return to me but she did not, and her unfaithful sister(L) Judah saw it.(M) 8 I gave faithless Israel(N) her certificate of divorce(O) and sent her away because of all her adulteries. Yet I saw that her unfaithful sister Judah had no fear;(P) she also went out and committed adultery. 9 Because Israel’s immorality mattered so little to her, she defiled the land(Q) and committed adultery(R) with stone(S) and wood.(T) 10 In spite of all this, her unfaithful sister Judah did not return(U) to me with all her heart, but only in pretense,(V)” declares the Lord.(W)
