[1] The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah (this was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon), [2] which Jeremiah the prophet spoke to all the people of Judah, and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem: [3] From the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, even to this day, these twenty-three years, Yahweh’s word has come to me, and I have spoken to you, rising up early and speaking; but you have not listened. [4] Yahweh has sent to you all his servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them (but you have not listened or inclined your ear to hear), [5] saying, “Return now everyone from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that Yahweh has given to you and to your fathers, from of old and even forever more. [6] Don’t go after other gods to serve them or worship them, and don’t provoke me to anger with the work of your hands; then I will do you no harm.” [7] “Yet you have not listened to me,” says Yahweh, “that you may provoke me to anger with the work of your hands to your own hurt.” [8] Therefore Yahweh of Armies says: “Because you have not heard my words, [9] behold, I will send and take all the families of the north,” says Yahweh, “and I will send to Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against its inhabitants, and against all these nations around. I will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and perpetual desolations. [10] Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the lamp. [11] This whole land will be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations will serve the king of Babylon seventy years. [12] “It will happen, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation,” says Yahweh, “for their iniquity. I will make the land of the Chaldeans desolate forever. [13] I will bring on that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah has prophesied against all the nations. [14] For many nations and great kings will make bondservants of them, even of them. I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the work of their hands.” [15] For Yahweh, the God of Israel, says to me: “Take this cup of the wine of wrath from my hand, and cause all the nations to whom I send you to drink it. [16] They will drink, and reel back and forth, and be insane, because of the sword that I will send among them.” [17] Then I took the cup at Yahweh’s hand, and made all the nations to drink, to whom Yahweh had sent me: [18] Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, with its kings and its princes, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, a hissing, and a curse, as it is today; [19] Pharaoh king of Egypt, with his servants, his princes, and all his people; [20] and all the mixed people, and all the kings of the land of Uz, all the kings of the Philistines, Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod; [21] Edom, Moab, and the children of Ammon; [22] and all the kings of Tyre, all the kings of Sidon, and the kings of the isle which is beyond the sea; [23] Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all who have the corners of their beard cut off; [24] and all the kings of Arabia, all the kings of the mixed people who dwell in the wilderness; [25] and all the kings of Zimri, all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes; [26] and all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world, which are on the surface of the earth. The king of Sheshach will drink after them. [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.” [33] The slain of Yahweh will be at that day from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth. They won’t be lamented. They won’t be gathered or buried. They will be dung on the surface of the ground.
[34] Wail, you shepherds, and cry.
Wallow in dust, you leader of the flock;
for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions have fully come,
and you will fall like fine pottery.
[35] The shepherds will have no way to flee.
The leader of the flock will have no escape.
[36] A voice of the cry of the shepherds,
and the wailing of the leader of the flock,
for Yahweh destroys their pasture.
[37] The peaceful folds are brought to silence
because of the fierce anger of Yahweh.
[38] He has left his covert, as the lion;
for their land has become an astonishment because of the fierceness of the oppression,
and because of his fierce anger.

[16] And they shall drink,H8354(QalPerf) and be moved,H1607(HipoPerf) and be mad,H1984(HipoImpv) becauseH6440 of the swordH2719 that I will sendH7971(QalActPtc) among them. [17] Then tookH3947(QalImpf) I the cupH3563 at the Lord’sH3068 hand,H3027 and made all the nationsH1471 to drink,H8248(HiphImpf) unto whom the LordH3068 had sentH7971(QalPerf) me: [18] [To wit], Jerusalem,H3389 and the citiesH5892 of Judah,H3063 and the kingsH4428 thereof, and the princesH8269 thereof, to makeH5414(QalInf) them a desolation,H2723 an astonishment,H8047 an hissing,H8322 and a curse;H7045 as [it is] this day;H3117 [19] PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of Egypt,H4714 and his servants,H5650 and his princes,H8269 and all his people;H5971 [20] And all the mingledH6153 people, and all the kingsH4428 of the landH776 of Uz,H5780 and all the kingsH4428 of the landH776 of the Philistines,H6430 and Ashkelon,H831 and Azzah,H5804 and Ekron,H6138 and the remnantH7611 of Ashdod,H795 [21] Edom,H123 and Moab,H4124 and the childrenH1121 of Ammon,H5983 [22] And all the kingsH4428 of Tyrus,H6865 and all the kingsH4428 of Zidon,H6721 and the kingsH4428 of the islesH339 which [are] beyondH5676 the sea,H3220 [23] Dedan,H1719 and Tema,H8485 and Buz,H938 and all [that are] in the utmostH7112(QalPasPtc) corners,H6285 [24] And all the kingsH4428 of Arabia,H6152 and all the kingsH4428 of the mingled peopleH6153 that dwellH7931(QalActPtc) in the desert,H4057 [25] And all the kingsH4428 of Zimri,H2174 and all the kingsH4428 of Elam,H5867 and all the kingsH4428 of the Medes,H4074 [26] And all the kingsH4428 of the north,H6828 farH7350 and near,H7138 oneH376 with another,H251 and all the kingdomsH4467 of the world,H776 which [are] upon the faceH6440 of the earth:H127 and the kingH4428 of SheshachH8347 shall drinkH8354(QalImpf) afterH310 them. [27] Therefore thou shalt sayH559(QalPerf) unto them, Thus saithH559(QalPerf) the LordH3068 of hosts,H6635 the GodH430 of Israel;H3478 DrinkH8354(QalImpv) ye, and be drunken,H7937(QalImpv) and spue,H7006(QalImpv) and fall,H5307(QalImpv) and riseH6965(QalImpf) no more, becauseH6440 of the swordH2719 which I will sendH7971(QalActPtc) among you. [28] And it shall be, if they refuseH3985(PielImpf) to takeH3947(QalInf) the cupH3563 at thine handH3027 to drink,H8354(QalInf) then shalt thou sayH559(QalPerf) unto them, Thus saithH559(QalPerf) the LordH3068 of hosts;H6635 Ye shall certainlyH8354(QalInf) drink.H8354(QalImpf) [29] For, lo, I beginH2490(HiphPtc) to bring evilH7489(HiphInf) on the cityH5892 which is calledH7121(NiphPerf) by my name,H8034 and should ye be utterlyH5352(NiphInf) unpunished?H5352(NiphImpf) Ye shall not be unpunished:H5352(NiphInf) for I will callH7121(QalActPtc) for a swordH2719 upon all the inhabitantsH3427(QalActPtc) of the earth,H776 saithH5002(QalPasPtc) the LordH3068 of hosts.H6635 [30] Therefore prophesyH5012(NiphImpf) thou against them all these words,H1697 and sayH559(QalPerf) unto them, The LordH3068 shall roarH7580(QalImpf) from on high,H4791 and utterH5414(QalImpf) his voiceH6963 from his holyH6944 habitation;H4583 he shall mightilyH7580(QalInf) roarH7580(QalImpf) upon his habitation;H5116 he shall giveH6030(QalImpf) a shout,H1959 as they that treadH1869(QalActPtc) [the grapes], against all the inhabitantsH3427(QalActPtc) of the earth.H776 [31] A noiseH7588 shall comeH935(QalPerf) [even] to the endsH7097 of the earth;H776 for the LordH3068 hath a controversyH7379 with the nations,H1471 he will pleadH8199(NiphPtc) with all flesh;H1320 he will giveH5414(QalPerf) them [that are] wickedH7563 to the sword,H2719 saithH5002(QalPasPtc) the Lord.H3068 [32] Thus saithH559(QalPerf) the LordH3068 of hosts,H6635 Behold, evilH7451 shall go forthH3318(QalActPtc) from nationH1471 to nation,H1471 and a greatH1419 whirlwindH5591 shall be raised upH5782(NiphImpf) from the coastsH3411 of the earth.H776 [33] And the slainH2491 of the LordH3068 shall be at that dayH3117 from [one] endH7097 of the earthH776 even unto the [other] endH7097 of the earth:H776 they shall not be lamented,H5594(NiphImpf) neither gathered,H622(NiphImpf) nor buried;H6912(NiphImpf) they shall be dungH1828 uponH6440 the ground.H127 [34] Howl,H3213(HiphImpv) ye shepherds,H7462(QalActPtc) and cry;H2199(QalImpv) and wallowH6428(HithImpv) yourselves [in the ashes], ye principalH117 of the flock:H6629 for the daysH3117 of your slaughterH2873(QalInf) and of your dispersionsH8600 are accomplished;H4390(QalPerf) and ye shall fallH5307(QalPerf) like a pleasantH2532 vessel.H3627 [35] And the shepherdsH7462(QalActPtc) shall have no wayH4498 to flee,H6(QalPerf) nor the principalH117 of the flockH6629 to escape.H6413 [36] A voiceH6963 of the cryH6818 of the shepherds,H7462(QalActPtc) and an howlingH3215 of the principalH117 of the flock,H6629 [shall be heard]: for the LordH3068 hath spoiledH7703(QalActPtc) their pasture.H4830 [37] And the peaceableH7965 habitationsH4999 are cut downH1826(NiphPerf) becauseH6440 of the fierceH2740 angerH639 of the Lord.H3068 [38] He hath forsakenH5800(QalPerf) his covert,H5520 as the lion:H3715 for their landH776 is desolateH8047 becauseH6440 of the fiercenessH2740 of the oppressor,H3238(QalActPtc) and becauseH6440 of his fierceH2740 anger.H639
