15 Woe to him who gives his neighbors drink,
pouring out your wrath[a]
and even making them drunk,
in order to look at their nakedness!
16 You will be filled with disgrace instead of glory.
You also—drink,
and expose your uncircumcision![b]
The cup in the Lord’s right hand
will come around to you,
and utter disgrace will cover your glory.(A)
17 For your violence against Lebanon
will overwhelm you;
the destruction of animals will terrify you[c]
because of your human bloodshed and violence
against lands, cities, and all who live in them.
