27 “You shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, “(A)Drink, be drunk, vomit, fall and rise no more because of the (B)sword which I will send among you.”’ 28 And it will be, if they (C)refuse to take the cup from your hand to drink, then you will say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts: “(D)You shall surely drink! 29 For behold, I am (E)beginning to work calamity in this city which is (F)called by My name, and shall you be completely free from punishment? You will not be free from punishment; for (G)I am summoning a sword against all the inhabitants of the earth,” declares the Lord of hosts.’

30 “Therefore you shall prophesy against them all these words, and you shall say to them,

‘The (H)Lord will (I)roar from on high
And utter His voice from His holy habitation;
He will roar mightily against His [a]fold.
He will shout like those who tread the grapes,
Against all the inhabitants of the earth.
31 ‘A clamor has come to the end of the earth,
Because the Lord has (J)a controversy with the nations.
He is entering into (K)judgment with all flesh;
As for the wicked, He has given them to the sword,’ declares the Lord.”

32 Thus says the Lord of hosts,
“Behold, evil is going forth
From (L)nation to nation,
And a great (M)storm is being stirred up
From the remotest parts of the earth.
