Jeremiah 25:27-32
New Living Translation
27 Then the Lord said to me, “Now tell them, ‘This is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, the God of Israel, says: Drink from this cup of my anger. Get drunk and vomit; fall to rise no more, for I am sending terrible wars against you.’ 28 And if they refuse to accept the cup, tell them, ‘The Lord of Heaven’s Armies says: You have no choice but to drink from it. 29 I have begun to punish Jerusalem, the city that bears my name. Now should I let you go unpunished? No, you will not escape disaster. I will call for war against all the nations of the earth. I, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, have spoken!’
30 “Now prophesy all these things, and say to them,
“‘The Lord will roar against his own land
from his holy dwelling in heaven.
He will shout like those who tread grapes;
he will shout against everyone on earth.
31 His cry of judgment will reach the ends of the earth,
for the Lord will bring his case against all the nations.
He will judge all the people of the earth,
slaughtering the wicked with the sword.
I, the Lord, have spoken!’”
32 This is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies says:
“Look! Disaster will fall upon nation after nation!
A great whirlwind of fury is rising
from the most distant corners of the earth!”
Jeremiah 25:27-32

27 “You shall say to them, ‘Thus says Yahweh 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 Yahweh of hosts: “(D)You shall surely drink! 29 For behold, I am (E)beginning to bring evil against this city which is (F)called by My name. But shall you be completely free from punishment? You will not be free from punishment, for (G)I am calling for a sword against all the inhabitants of the earth,” declares Yahweh of hosts.’
30 “Therefore you shall prophesy against them all these words, and you shall say to them,
‘(H)Yahweh will (I)roar from on high
And give forth His voice from His holy habitation;
He will roar mightily against His [a]pasture.
He will bellow a shout like those who tread the grapes,
Against all the inhabitants of the earth.
31 A rumbling has come to the end of the earth
Because Yahweh has (J)a contention against the nations.
He is entering into (K)judgment with all flesh;
As for the wicked, He has given them to the sword,’ declares Yahweh.”
32 Thus says Yahweh 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.
