25The word came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, which was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
2So Jeremiah the prophet said to all the people of Judah and to all those living in Jerusalem:
3For twenty-three years-from the thirteenth year of Josiah son of Amon king of Judah until this very day-the word of the Lord has come to me and I have spoken to you again and again, but you have not listened.
4And though the Lord has sent all his servants the prophets to you again and again, you have not listened or paid any attention.
5They said, "Turn now, each of you, from your evil ways and your evil practices, and you can stay in the land the Lord gave to you and your fathers for ever and ever.
6Do not follow other gods to serve and worship them; do not provoke me to anger with what your hands have made. Then I will not harm you."
7"But you did not listen to me," declares the Lord , "and you have provoked me with what your hands have made, and you have brought harm to yourselves."
8Therefore the Lord Almighty 1 says this: "Because you have not listened to my words,
9I will summon all the peoples of the north and my servant Nebuchadnezzar 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 them and make them an object of horror and scorn, and an everlasting 3 ruin.
10I will banish 4 from them the sounds of joy and gladness, the voices of bride and bridegroom, the sound of millstones and the light of the lamp.
11This whole country will become a desolate 5 wasteland, and these nations will serve the king of Babylon seventy years.
12"But when the seventy years are fulfilled, I will punish the king of Babylon and his nation, the land of the Babylonians, for their guilt," declares the Lord , "and will make it desolate forever.
13I will bring upon that land all the things I have spoken against it, all that are written in this book and prophesied 6 by Jeremiah against all the nations.
14They themselves will be enslaved by many nations and great kings; I will repay them according to their deeds and the work of their hands."
15This is what the Lord , the God of Israel, said to me: "Take from my hand this cup filled with the wine of my wrath 7 and make all the nations to whom I send you drink it.
16When they drink it, they will stagger and go mad because of the sword I will send among them."
17So I took the cup from the Lord 's hand and made all the nations to whom he sent me drink it:
18Jerusalem and the towns of Judah, its kings and officials, to make them a ruin and an object of horror and scorn and cursing, as they are today;
19Pharaoh king of Egypt, his attendants, his officials and all his people,
20and all the foreign people there; all the kings of Uz; all the kings of the Philistines 8 (those of Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the people left at Ashdod);
21Edom, Moab and Ammon;
22all the kings of Tyre and Sidon; the kings of the coastlands across the sea;
23Dedan, Tema, Buz and all who are in distant places ;
24all the kings of Arabia and all the kings of the foreign people who live in the desert;
25all the kings of Zimri, Elam and Media;
26and all the kings of the north, near and far, one after the other-all the kingdoms on the face of the earth. And after all of them, the king of Sheshach will drink it too.
27"Then tell them, 'This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Drink, get drunk and vomit 9, and fall to rise no more because of the sword I will send among you.'
28But if they refuse to take the cup from your hand and drink, tell them, 'This is what the Lord Almighty says: You must drink it!
29See, I am beginning to bring disaster on the city that bears my Name, and will you indeed go unpunished? You will not go unpunished, for I am calling down a sword upon all who live on the earth, declares the Lord Almighty.'
30"Now prophesy 10 all these words against them and say to them: " 'The Lord will roar from on high; he will thunder from his holy dwelling 11 and roar mightily 12 against his land. He will shout like those who tread the grapes, shout against all who live on the earth.
31The tumult 13 will resound 14 to the ends of the earth, for the Lord will bring charges against the nations; he will bring judgment 15 on all mankind and put the wicked to the sword,' " declares the Lord .
32This is what the Lord Almighty says: "Look! Disaster is spreading from nation to nation; a mighty 2 storm is rising from the ends of the earth."
33At that time those slain 16 by the Lord will be everywhere-from one end of the earth to the other. They will not be mourned or gathered up or buried, but will be like refuse lying on the ground.
34Weep and wail 17, you shepherds; roll in the dust, you leaders of the flock. For your time to be slaughtered 18 has come; you will fall and be shattered like fine pottery 19.
35The shepherds will have nowhere to flee, the leaders of the flock no place to escape.
36Hear the cry of the shepherds, the wailing 20 of the leaders of the flock, for the Lord is destroying their pasture.
37The peaceful meadows will be laid waste because of the fierce anger of the Lord .
38Like a lion he will leave his lair 21, and their land will become desolate because of the sword of the oppressor and because of the Lord 's fierce anger.
