The Nations Will Be Judged

15 “The Lord’s day of judging is coming soon
    to all the nations.
You did evil things to other people.
    Those same things will happen to you.
    They will come back upon your own head.
16 Because you joined the nations in robbing my Temple,
    you drank my anger.
So all the nations will drink my anger.
    They will be punished so much that they will disappear.
17 But on Mount Zion some will be left alive.
    The mountain will be a holy place.
The people of Jacob will take back their land.
    They will take it from those who took it from them.

As you have done, it will be done to you;
    your deeds(B) will return upon your own head.
16 Just as you drank(C) on my holy hill,(D)
    so all the nations will drink(E) continually;
they will drink and drink
    and be as if they had never been.(F)
17 But on Mount Zion will be deliverance;(G)
    it will be holy,(H)
    and Jacob will possess his inheritance.(I)
