26 And all the kings of the North, far and near one to another, and all the kingdoms of the world, which are upon the earth, and the king of [a]Sheshach shall drink after them.
27 Therefore say thou unto them, Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Drink and be drunken, and spew and fall, and rise no more, because of the sword, which I will send among you.
28 ¶ But if they refuse to take the cup at thine hand to drink, then tell them, Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Ye shall certainly drink.
