15 “Alas for you who make your neighbors drink,
    pouring out your wrath until they are drunk,
    in order to gaze on their nakedness!”(A)
16 You will be sated with contempt instead of glory.
    Drink, you yourself, and stagger![a]
The cup in the Lord’s right hand
    will come around to you,
    and shame will come upon your glory!(B)
17 For the violence done to Lebanon will overwhelm you;
    the destruction of the animals will terrify you—[b]
because of human bloodshed and violence to the earth,
    to cities and all who live in them.(C)
