The Cup of the Lord’s Wrath

15 Thus the Lord, the God of Israel, said to me: ^g“Take from my hand this cup of the wine of wrath, and make all the nations to whom I send you drink it. 16 They shall drink and stagger and be crazed because of ^hthe sword that I am sending among them.”

17 So I took the cup from the Lord’s hand, ⁱand made all the nations to whom the Lord sent me drink it: 18 ^jJerusalem and the cities of Judah, its kings and officials, ^kto make them a desolation and a waste, a hissing and a curse, as at this day; 19 ^lPharaoh king of Egypt, his servants, his officials, all his people, 20 and ^mall the mixed tribes among them; all the kings of ⁿthe land of Uz and all the kings of ^othe land of the Philistines ( ^pAshkelon, ^qGaza, Ekron, and the remnant of ^rAshdod); 21 ^sEdom, ^tMoab, and the sons of ^uAmmon; 22 all the kings of ^vTyre, all the kings of ^wSidon, and the kings of the coastland across ^xthe sea; 23 ^yDedan, ^zTema, ^aaBuz, and all who cut ^abthe corners of their hair; 24 all the ^ackings of Arabia and all the kings of ^adthe mixed tribes who dwell in the desert; 25 all the kings of Zimri, all the kings of ^aeElam, and all the kings of ^afMedia; 26 all the kings of ^agthe north, far and near, one after another, and all the kingdoms of the world that are on the face of the earth. And after them the king of ^ahBabylon ^{▼▼Hebrew Sheshach, a code name for Babylon} shall drink.

27 “Then you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: ^ajDrink, be drunk and vomit, fall and rise no more, because of ^akthe sword that I am sending among you.’

Nebuchadnezzar’s Golden Image

1 King Nebuchadnezzar made an image of gold, whose height was sixty cubits ^{▼▼A cubit was about 18 inches or 45 centimeters} and its breadth six cubits. He set it up on ^amthe plain of Dura, in ^anthe province of Babylon. 2 Then King Nebuchadnezzar sent to gather ^aothe satraps, the prefects, and ^apthe governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the justices, the magistrates, and all the officials of the provinces to come to the dedication of the image that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up. 3 Then ^aqthe satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the justices, the magistrates, and all the officials of the provinces gathered for the dedication of the image that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up. And they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up. 4 And the herald ^arproclaimed aloud, “You are commanded, O ^aspeoples, nations, and languages, 5 that when you hear the ^atsound of the horn, pipe, lyre, trigon, harp, bagpipe, and every kind of music, you ^auare to fall down and worship the golden image that King Nebuchadnezzar has set up. 6 And whoever does not fall down and worship shall immediately ^avbe cast into a burning fiery furnace.” 7 Therefore, as soon as all the peoples heard the sound of the horn, pipe, lyre, trigon, harp, bagpipe, and every kind of music, all ^awthe peoples, nations, and languages fell down and worshiped the golden image that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up.
