1:15 The punishment of nations

15 For all the nations, Yahweh’s day is near,

Just as you’ve done, the same will be done to you.

≈ Your actions will return onto your own head.

16 Because just like how all you Israelis[fn] drank suffering on my holy mountain,

all the nations will drink continually.

They will drink and swallow it down.

They’ll become as if they’d never even existed.

---

1:16 It’s not actually clear from the Hebrew who ‘you all’ refers to, so the addition of ‘Israelis’ is clearly an interpretive decision and other translations might differ.

15 If/because is_near the_day_of YHWH on all_of the_nations just_as you_have_done it_will_be_done to_you recompense_of_your it_will_return on_your_own_of_head.

16 If/because just_as you(pl)_have_drunk on the_mountain_of my_holiness_of_my all_of the_nations they_will_drink continually and_they_will_drink and_they_will_swallow and_they_will_be like_those_who_not they_had_been.
