15Thus said the Lord God of Israel ; Take the cup of this unmixed wine from my hand, and you shall cause all the nations to drink, to whom I send you.
15For thus saith the Lord God of Israel unto me; Take the wine cup of this fury at my hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send thee, to drink it.
16And they shall drink, and vomit, and be mad, because of the sword which I send among them.
16And they shall drink, and be moved, and be mad, because of the sword that I will send among them.
17So I took the cup out of the Lord's hand, and caused the nations to whom the Lord sent me to drink:
17Then took I the cup at the Lord’s hand, and made all the nations to drink, unto whom the Lord had sent me:
18Jerusalem, and the cities of Juda, and the kings of Juda, and his princes , to make them a desert place, a desolation, and a hissing;
18To wit, Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, and the kings thereof, and the princes thereof, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, an hissing, and a curse; as it is this day;
19and Pharao king of Egypt, and his servants, and his nobles, and all his people;
19Pharaoh king of Egypt, and his servants, and his princes, and all his people;
20and all the mingled [people], and all the kings of the Philistines, and Ascalon, and Gaza, and Accaron, and the remnant of Azotus,
20And all the mingled people, and all the kings of the land of Uz, and all the kings of the land of the Philistines, and Ashkelon, and Azzah, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod,
21and Idumea, and the land of Moab, and the children of Ammon,
21Edom, and Moab, and the children of Ammon,
22and the kings of Tyre, and the kings of Sidon, and the kings in the [country] beyond the sea,
22And all the kings of Tyrus, and all the kings of Zidon, and the kings of the isles which are beyond the sea,
23and Daedan, and Thaeman, and Ros, and every one that is shaved round about the face,
23Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and all that are in the utmost corners,
24and all the mingled [people] lodging in the wilderness,
24And all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the mingled people that dwell in the desert,
25and all the kings of Aelam, and all the kings of the Persians,
25And all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes,
26and all the kings from the north, the far and the near, each one with his brother, and all the kingdoms which are on the face of the earth.
26And all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another, and all the kingdoms of the world, which are upon the face of the earth: and the king of Sheshach shall drink after them.
27And you shall say to them, Thus said the Lord Almighty; Drink you⌃, be you⌃ drunken; and you⌃ shall vomit, and shall fall, and shall in nowise rise , because of the sword which I send among you.
27Therefore thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Drink ye, and be drunken, and spue, and fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.
28And it shall come to pass, when they refuse to take the cup out of your hand, to drink it, that you shall say , Thus said the Lord ; You⌃ shall surely drink.
28And it shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at thine hand to drink, then shalt thou say unto them, Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Ye shall certainly drink.
29ForI am beginning to afflict the city whereon my name is called , and you⌃ shall by no means be held guiltless: for I am calling a sword upon all that dwell upon the earth.
29For, lo, I begin to bring evil on the city which is called by my name, and should ye be utterly unpunished? Ye shall not be unpunished: for I will call for a sword upon all the inhabitants of the earth, saith the Lord of hosts.
30And you shall prophesy against them these words, and shall say , The Lord shall speak from on high, from his sanctuary he will utter his voice ; he will pronounce a declaration on his place; and these shall answer like men gathering grapes: and destruction is coming on them that dwell on the earth,
30Therefore prophesy thou against them all these words, and say unto them, The Lord shall roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation; he shall mightily roar upon his habitation; he shall give a shout, as they that tread the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.
31[even] upon [the extreme] part of the earth; for the Lord [has] a controversy with the nations, he is pleading with all flesh, and the ungodly are given to the sword, says the Lord.
31A noise shall come even to the ends of the earth; for the Lord hath a controversy with the nations, he will plead with all flesh; he will give them that are wicked to the sword, saith the Lord.
32Thus said the Lord; Behold, evils are proceeding from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind goes forth from the end of the earth.
32Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.
33And the slain of the Lord shall be in the day of the Lord from [one] end of the earth even to the [other] end of the earth: they shall not be buried; they shall be as dung on the face of the earth.
33And the slain of the Lord shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the ground.
34Howl, you⌃ shepherds, and cry; and lament, you⌃ rams of the flock: for your days have been completed for slaughter, and you⌃ shall fall as the choice rams.
34Howl, ye shepherds, and cry; and wallow yourselves in the ashes, ye principal of the flock: for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions are accomplished; and ye shall fall like a pleasant vessel.
35And flight shall perish from the shepherds , and safety from the rams of the flock .
35And the shepherds shall have no way to flee, nor the principal of the flock to escape.
36A voice of the crying of the shepherds, and a moaning of the sheep and the rams: for the Lord has destroyed their pastures.
36A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and an howling of the principal of the flock, shall be heard: for the Lord hath spoiled their pasture.
37And the peaceful abodes that remain shall be destroyed before the fierceness of my anger .
37And the peaceable habitations are cut down because of the fierce anger of the Lord.
38He has forsaken his lair, as a lion: for their land is become desolate before the great sword.
38He hath forsaken his covert, as the lion: for their land is desolate because of the fierceness of the oppressor, and because of his fierce anger.
