28 But people may refuse to take the cup from you. They may refuse to drink from it. Then you must tell them that the Lord Almighty says this: “You must drink this wine of my punishment! 29 I have already begun to punish Jerusalem, the city that is my special home. So do not think that I will leave you other nations alone! I will certainly punish you too. I will send war against everyone who lives on the earth. That is what the Lord Almighty says will happen!”

30 Now Jeremiah, prophesy this message against them:

“The Lord will shout from his high place above.
    He will roar like a lion that is ready to attack his land.
    He will make a noise like thunder from his holy home.
He will shout aloud like people who are stamping on grapes
    to make wine.
He will shout against everyone who lives on the earth.

He will shout like those who tread(K) the grapes,
    shout against all who live on the earth.
