15For thus said Yahweh, the God of Israel, to me: “Take from my hand this cup of the wine of wrath, and make all the nations to whom I am sending you drink it.”

16They will drink, and stagger, and act like madmen because of the sword that I am sending among them.

17So I took the cup from the hand of Yahweh and made all the nations to whom Yahweh had sent me drink.

18Jerusalem, the cities of Judah, her kings, and her officials—to make them a ruin, a horror, a hissing, and a curse, as it is this day.
