Jeremiah 25:27-32
World English Bible
27 “You shall tell them, ‘Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel says: “Drink, and be drunk, vomit, fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.”’ 28 It shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at your hand to drink, then you shall tell them, ‘Yahweh of Armies says: “You shall surely drink. 29 For, behold, I begin to work evil at the city which is called by my name; and should you be utterly unpunished? You will not be unpunished; for I will call for a sword on all the inhabitants of the earth, says Yahweh of Armies.”’
30 “Therefore prophesy against them all these words, and tell them,
“‘Yahweh will roar from on high,
and utter his voice from his holy habitation.
He will mightily roar against his fold.
He will give a shout, as those who tread grapes,
against all the inhabitants of the earth.
31 A noise will come even to the end of the earth;
for Yahweh has a controversy with the nations.
He will enter into judgment with all flesh.
As for the wicked, he will give them to the sword,”’ says Yahweh.”
32 Yahweh of Armies says,
“Behold, evil will go out from nation to nation,
and a great storm will be raised up from the uttermost parts of the earth.”
Jeremiah 25:27-32
New American Standard Bible
27 “And you shall say to them, ‘This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel says: “(A)Drink, be drunk, vomit, fall down, and do not get up, because of the (B)sword which I am sending among you.”’ 28 And if they (C)refuse to take the cup from your hand to drink, then you shall say to them, ‘This is what the Lord of armies says: “(D)You shall certainly drink! 29 For behold, I am (E)beginning to inflict disaster on this city which is (F)called by My name, so should 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 armies.’
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 raise His voice from His holy dwelling;
He will roar forcefully 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 [b]humanity;
As for the wicked, He has turned them over to the sword,’ declares the Lord.”
32 This is what the Lord of armies says:
“Behold, evil is going out
From (L)nation to nation,
And a great (M)storm is being stirred up
From the remotest parts of the earth.
