¹¹ This whole country will become a desolate wasteland,^(A) and these nations will serve^(B) the king of Babylon seventy years.^(C)

¹³ I will bring on that land all the things I have spoken against it, all that are written^(A) in this book and prophesied by Jeremiah against all the nations.

¹⁴ They themselves will be enslaved^(A) by many nations^(B) and great kings; I will repay^(C) 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^(A) filled with the wine of my wrath and make all the nations to whom I send^(B) you drink it.

¹⁷ So I took the cup from the Lord’s hand and made all the nations to whom he sent^(A) me drink it:

⁶ then I will make this house like Shiloh^(A) and this city a curse^[a](B) among all the nations of the earth.’”

⁷ All nations will serve^(A) him and his son and his grandson until the time^(B) for his land comes; then many nations and great kings will subjugate^(C) him.

¹¹ and he said^(A) before all the people, “This is what the Lord says: ‘In the same way I will break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon off the neck of all the nations within two years.’” At this, the prophet Jeremiah went on his way.
