Jeremiah 25:26-28
Common English Bible
26 all the kings of the north, those nearby and those faraway, one after another, all the empires on the earth will drink from this cup.[a] And after them the king of Sheshach[b] will drink from it.
27 Then say to them: The Lord of heavenly forces, the God of Israel, proclaims: Drink this seething cup of wine and get drunk. Vomit and collapse and don’t get up again because of the sword that I’m thrusting into you. 28 If they refuse to take the cup in your hand and drink from it, tell them: This is what the Lord of heavenly forces says: You must drink!
