Jeremiah 25

11  And this whole land shall be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.

12  And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon, and that nation, saith Jehovah, for their iniquity, and the land of the Chaldeans; and I will make it desolate for ever.

13  And I will bring upon that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah hath prophesied against all the nations.

14  For many nations and great kings shall make bondmen of them, even of them; and I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the work of their hands.

15  For thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, unto me: take this cup of the wine of wrath at my hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send thee, to drink it.

16  And they shall drink, and reel to and fro, and be mad, because of the sword that I will send among them.

17  Then took I the cup at Jehovah's hand, and made all the nations to drink, unto whom Jehovah had sent me:

18  `to wit', Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, and the kings thereof, and the princes thereof, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, a hissing, and a curse, as it is this day;

19  Pharaoh king of Egypt, and his servants, and his princes, and all his people;

20  And all the mingled people, and all the kings of the land of the Uz, and all the kings of the Philistines, and Ashkelon, and Gaza, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;
