25:15 So 1 the Lord, the God of Israel, spoke to me in a vision. 2 “Take this cup from my hand. It is filled with the wine of my wrath. 3 Take it and make the nations to whom I send you drink it. 25:16 When they have drunk it, they will stagger to and fro 4 and act insane. For I will send wars sweeping through them.” 5
25:17 So I took the cup from the Lord’s hand. I made all the nations to whom he sent me drink the wine of his wrath. 6 25:18 I made Jerusalem 7 and the cities of Judah, its kings and its officials drink it. 8 I did it so Judah would become a ruin. I did it so Judah, its kings, and its officials would become an object 9 of horror and of hissing scorn, an example used in curses. 10 Such is already becoming the case! 11 25:19 I made all of these other people drink it: Pharaoh, king of Egypt; 12 his attendants, his officials, his people, 25:20 the foreigners living in Egypt; 13 all the kings of the land of Uz; 14 all the kings of the land of the Philistines, 15 the people of Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, the people who had been left alive from Ashdod; 16 25:21 all the people of Edom, 17 Moab, 18 Ammon; 19 25:22 all the kings of Tyre, 20 all the kings of Sidon; 21 all the kings of the coastlands along the sea; 22 25:23 the people of Dedan, Tema, Buz, 23 all the desert people who cut their hair short at the temples; 24 25:24 all the kings of Arabia who 25 live in the desert; 25:25 all the kings of Zimri; 26 all the kings of Elam; 27 all the kings of Media; 28
