21. Edom, Moab, and the people of Ammon;
22. all the kings of Tyre and Sidon, and the kings on the seacoast;
23. Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all who shave the hair on their foreheads;
24. all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the foreign people living in the desert;
25. all the kings of Zimri, all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of Media;
26. all the kings of the north, near and far, one after another—all the kingdoms of the earth. Last of all, the king of Sheshach will drink from the cup.
27. ⌊The Lord said,⌋ “Say to them, ‘This is what the Lord of Armies, the God of Israel, says: Drink, get drunk, vomit, fall down, and don’t get up because of the wars that I’m going to send you.’
28. But if they refuse to take the cup from your hand and drink from it, say to them, ‘This is what the Lord of Armies says: You must drink from it!
29. I am going to bring disaster on the city that is named after me. Do you think you’ll go unpunished? You will not go unpunished! I’m declaring war on all those who live on earth, declares the Lord of Armies.’
30. “That is why you will prophesy all these things to them and say,‘The Lord roars from above.He thunders from his holy dwelling place.He roars against his land.He shouts like those who stomp grapes.He shouts against all those who live on earth.
31. The sound is echoing to the ends of the earthbecause the Lord has brought charges against the nations.He will judge all humans.He will kill the wicked, declares the Lord.’
