Jeremiah 25:9-29
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
9 I am going to send for all the tribes of the north, says the Lord, even for King Nebuchadrezzar of Babylon, my servant, and I will bring them against this land and its inhabitants and against all these nations around; I will utterly destroy them and make them an object of horror and of hissing and an everlasting disgrace.[a](A) 10 And I will banish from them the sound of mirth and the sound of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones and the light of the lamp.(B) 11 This whole land shall become a ruin and a waste, and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years. 12 Then after seventy years are completed, I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation, the land of the Chaldeans, for their iniquity, says the Lord, making the land an everlasting waste.(C) 13 I will bring upon that land all the words that I have uttered against it, everything written in this book that Jeremiah prophesied against all the nations. 14 For many nations and great kings shall make slaves of them also, and I will repay them according to their deeds and the work of their hands.(D)
The Cup of God’s Wrath
15 For thus the Lord, the God of Israel, said to me: Take from my hand this cup of the wine of wrath, and make all the nations to whom I send you drink it.(E) 16 They shall drink and stagger and go out of their minds because of the sword that I am sending among them.(F)
17 So I took the cup from the Lord’s hand and made all the nations to whom the Lord sent me drink it: 18 Jerusalem and the towns of Judah, its kings and officials, to make them a desolation and a waste, an object of hissing and of cursing, as they are today;(G) 19 Pharaoh king of Egypt, his servants, his officials, and all his people; 20 all the mixed people;[b] all the kings of the land of Uz; all the kings of the land of the Philistines—Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;(H) 21 Edom, Moab, and the Ammonites;(I) 22 all the kings of Tyre, all the kings of Sidon, and the kings of the coastland across the sea;(J) 23 Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all who have shaved temples;(K) 24 all the kings of Arabia and all the kings of the mixed peoples[c] that live in the desert;(L) 25 all the kings of Zimri, all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of Media; 26 all the kings of the north, far and near, one after another, and all the kingdoms of the world that are on the face of the earth. And after them the king of Sheshach[d] shall drink.(M)
27 Then you shall say to them, Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Drink; get drunk and vomit; fall and rise no more because of the sword that I am sending among you.(N)
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: You must drink! 29 See, I am beginning to bring disaster on the city that is called by my name, and how can you possibly avoid punishment? You shall not go unpunished, for I am summoning a sword against all the inhabitants of the earth, says the Lord of hosts.(O)

Jeremiah 25:9-29
New International Version
9 I will summon(A) all the peoples of the north(B) and my servant(C) Nebuchadnezzar(D) king of Babylon,” declares the Lord, “and I will bring them against this land and its inhabitants and against all the surrounding nations. I will completely destroy[a](E) them and make them an object of horror and scorn,(F) and an everlasting ruin.(G) 10 I will banish from them the sounds(H) of joy and gladness, the voices of bride and bridegroom,(I) the sound of millstones(J) and the light of the lamp.(K) 11 This whole country will become a desolate wasteland,(L) and these nations will serve(M) the king of Babylon seventy years.(N)
12 “But when the seventy years(O) are fulfilled, I will punish the king of Babylon(P) and his nation, the land of the Babylonians,[b] for their guilt,” declares the Lord, “and will make it desolate(Q) forever. 13 I will bring on that land all the things I have spoken against it, all that are written(R) in this book and prophesied by Jeremiah against all the nations. 14 They themselves will be enslaved(S) by many nations(T) and great kings; I will repay(U) them according to their deeds and the work of their hands.”
The Cup of God’s Wrath
15 This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, said to me: “Take from my hand this cup(V) filled with the wine of my wrath and make all the nations to whom I send(W) you drink it. 16 When they drink(X) it, they will stagger(Y) and go mad(Z) because of the sword(AA) I will send among them.”
17 So I took the cup from the Lord’s hand and made all the nations to whom he sent(AB) me drink it: 18 Jerusalem(AC) and the towns of Judah, its kings and officials, to make them a ruin(AD) and an object of horror and scorn,(AE) a curse[c](AF)—as they are today;(AG) 19 Pharaoh king(AH) of Egypt,(AI) his attendants, his officials and all his people, 20 and all the foreign people there; all the kings of Uz;(AJ) all the kings of the Philistines(AK) (those of Ashkelon,(AL) Gaza,(AM) Ekron, and the people left at Ashdod); 21 Edom,(AN) Moab(AO) and Ammon;(AP) 22 all the kings of Tyre(AQ) and Sidon;(AR) the kings of the coastlands(AS) across the sea; 23 Dedan,(AT) Tema,(AU) Buz(AV) and all who are in distant places[d];(AW) 24 all the kings of Arabia(AX) and all the kings of the foreign people(AY) who live in the wilderness; 25 all the kings of Zimri,(AZ) Elam(BA) and Media;(BB) 26 and all the kings of the north,(BC) near and far, one after the other—all the kingdoms(BD) on the face of the earth. And after all of them, the king of Sheshak[e](BE) will drink it too.
27 “Then tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Drink, get drunk(BF) and vomit, and fall to rise no more because of the sword(BG) I will send among you.’ 28 But if they refuse to take the cup from your hand and drink(BH), tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Almighty says: You must drink it! 29 See, I am beginning to bring disaster(BI) on the city that bears my Name,(BJ) and will you indeed go unpunished?(BK) You will not go unpunished, for I am calling down a sword(BL) on all(BM) who live on the earth,(BN) declares the Lord Almighty.’
