Psalms 74:9

9For, in the hand of the Lord, there is a cup of undiluted wine, full of consternation.
And he has tipped it from here to there.
So, truly, its dregs have not been emptied.
All the sinners of the earth will drink.
74:9The expression ‘meri vini’ refers to undiluted wine. In ancient times, people often diluted their wine with water; this made the water more sanitary, while preventing drunkenness. This metaphorical wine is undiluted. God tips the cup of wine from one side to another (not pouring it out yet), so as to mix the sediments into the wine, making is full strength. The earth will drink from the cup of God’s wrath, undiluted and with even the sediments mixed in.(Conte)
