Jeremiah 25:23-32 Modern English Version (MEV)

23. Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and all who cut the corners of their hair;

24. and all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the foreign people who dwell in the desert;

25. and all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes;

26. and all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the earth which are upon the face of the earth, and the king of Sheshak shall drink after them.

27. Therefore you shall say to them, Thus says the Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel: Drink and be drunk and spew and fall and rise no more because of the sword which I will send among you.

28. It will be, if they refuse to take the cup from your hand to drink, then you will say to them: Thus says the Lord of Hosts: You shall certainly drink!

29. For I am starting to bring calamity on the city which is called by My name, and should you be utterly unpunished? You shall not be unpunished. For I will call for a sword upon all the inhabitants of the earth, says the Lord of Hosts.

30. Therefore prophesy against them all these words, and say to them: The Lord will roar from on high,and utter His voice from His holy habitation;He will mightily roar against His fold.He will give a shout, as those who tread the grapes,against all the inhabitants of the earth.

31. A noise shall come even to the remote parts of the earth,for the Lord has a controversy with the nations;He shall enter into judgment with all flesh.He shall give those who are wicked to the sword,says the Lord.

32. Thus says the Lord of Hosts: See, disaster shall go forthfrom nation to nation,and a great whirlwind shall be raised upfrom the remote parts of the earth.
