Jeremiah 25:27-32

English Standard Version

²⁷“Then you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: ^(A)Drink, be drunk and vomit, fall and rise no more, because of ^(B)the sword that I am sending among you.’

²⁸“And if they refuse to accept the cup from your hand to drink, then you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts: ^(C)You must drink! ²⁹For behold, ^(D)I begin to work disaster at the city that is called by my name, and shall you go unpunished? You shall not go unpunished, ^(E)for I am summoning a sword against all the inhabitants of the earth, declares the Lord of hosts.’

³⁰“You, therefore, shall prophesy against them all these words, and say to them:

^(F)“‘The Lord will roar from on high,
    and from his holy habitation utter his voice;
he will roar mightily against his fold,
    ^(G)and shout, like those who tread grapes,
    against all the inhabitants of the earth.
³¹The clamor will resound to the ends of the earth,
    for ^(H)the Lord has an indictment against the nations;
^(I)he is entering into judgment with all flesh,
    and the wicked he will put to the sword,
declares the Lord.’

³²“Thus says the Lord of hosts:
Behold, disaster is going forth
from nation to nation,
^(J)and a great tempest is stirring
^(K)from the farthest parts of the earth!
