Moff JER Chapter 25

JER 25 ©

25The word that came to Jeremiah regarding all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah (the first year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon), 2the message he delivered to all the people of Judah and all the citizens of Jerusalem. 3“[[For all these twenty-three years, from the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, down to this day, I have been telling you, earnestly and urgently, 5to give up your evil courses, every one of you, and your evil conduct, that you may remain in the land that the Eternal gave to you and to your fathers for all time, 6instead of wandering away to serve and worship foreign gods, angering the Eternal with your manufactured idols--only to your own hurt. 7But you would not listen to me. 8This therefore is the sentence of the Lord of hosts: Since you have not listened to my words,]] 9I am sending for a race from the north and bringing it down upon this land, upon its inhabitants and upon all the surrounding nations. I will exterminate them, I will make them a lasting desolation, a scorn and horror; 10I will banish from them the sound of mirth and gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the bride, the sound of millstones and the light of a lamp. 11The whole of this country shall be a waste and a horror [[and for seventy years the people shall be subject to the king of Babylon. 12However, when the seventy years are over, I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation for their guilt, says the Eternal, and I will make the land of the Chaldeans desolate for all time. 13I will inflict on that land all the threats I have uttered against it, all the threats which Jeremiah has prophesied against all the nations, and which are written in this book. 14Many a nation, many a great king, shall make slaves of them, yes even of them; but I will pay them back for what they have done, as they deserve]],” 15For this is what the Eternal, the God of Israel, said to me: “Take this wine-cup of wrath that I hand to you, and hold it to the lips of all the nations to whom I send you, 16till they drink it and stagger madly to and fro.” 17[[So I took the cup from the hand of the Eternal and held it to the lips of all the nations to whom the Eternal had sent me-- 18to Jerusalem, to Judah with its towns, its kings and leading men (to render them a desolation, a horror, a derision, and a curse, as at the present day), 19to the Pharaoh, king of Egypt, his courtiers, princes, all his people 20and all the foreign population of Egypt, to all the kings of the land of Uz, to all the kings of the land of the Philistines--that is, of Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the survivors in Ashdod, 21to Edom, Moab, and the Ammonites, 22to all the kings of Tyre and of Sidon, to the kings of the coast-land overseas, 23to Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all the crop-haired clans, 24to all the nomad kings, 25to all the kings of Zimri, Elam, and Media, 26to all the kings of the north, far and near, one after another, to all kingdoms on the face of the earth; and after them the king of Babylon shall drink.]] 27“Tell them this is what the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Drink yourselves drunk, till you tumble in your vomit, never to rise again--under the sword I am sending among you.’ 28And if they decline to drink the cup you hand to them, tell them this is what the Lord of hosts says: ‘Drink you must! 29I begin by inflicting evil on the city that belongs to me, and are you to get off unpunished? You shall not go unpunished, for I am summoning a sword to fall on all the inhabitants of the world, says the Lord of hosts.’

30So prophesy all this against them; tell them:

The Eternal will roar from on high,

from his sacred abode he will utter a cry,

thundering at his own homestead,

shouting at all dwellers upon earth,

as men shout loudly at the vintage.

31

The din resounds to the world’s end,

for the Eternal arraigns the nations,

he indicts all mankind,

and puts the wicked to the sword.

32

The Lord of hosts declares:

from race to race calamity extends,

a mighty storm is stirring

from the earth’s far ends.”

33

Then shall the victims of the Eternal lie

all over earth, from end to end,

like dung on the face of the ground,

unwailed, ungathered, unburied.

34

Howl and cry, you rulers,

roll in the ashes, you lords of the flock!

’Tis high time you were slain,

and slain you shall be, falling like choice lambs.

35

No escape for the rulers,

no way for the lords of the flock to flee!

36

Hark to the shriek of the rulers,

the howl from the lords of the flock!

The Eternal is wasting their pasture.

37

No sound now in the peaceful meadows,

so fierce the Eternal’s fury!

38

The very lions leave their lairs,

for the land now lies a desert

under the stress of the sword,

the furious wrath of the Eternal.
