Jeremiah 25:6-26

JuliaSmith(i) 6 And ye shall not go after other gods to serve them and to worship to them, and ye shall not irritate me in the work of your hands; and I will not do evil to you. 7 And ye heard not to me, says Jehovah; so as to irritate me in the works of your hands for evil to you. 8 For this, thus said Jehovah of armies: Because ye heard not my word, 9 Behold me sending, and I took all the families of the north, says Jehovah, to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babel, my servant, and I brought them against this land and against its inhabitants, and against all these nations round about, and I devoted them to destruction, and I set them for a desolation and for a hissing, and for perpetual wastes. 10 And I destroyed from them the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of the two millstones and the light of the lamp. 11 All this land was for a waste, for a desolation, and these nations served the king of Babel seventy years. 12 And it was when seventy years were filled up, I will review over the king of Babel and upon this nation, says Jehovah, their iniquity, and upon the land of the Chaldeans, and I set it for eternal desolations 13 And I brought upon this land all the words I spake against it, all being in this book which Jeremiah prophesied against all the nations. 14 For many nations they also served upon them, and great kings: and I requited to them according to their work and according to the doings of their hands. 15 For thus said Jehovah God of Israel to me: Take the cup of wine of this wrath from my hand, and cause all the nations which I sent thee to them to drink it 16 And they drank and they staggered, and they were mad from the face of the sword which I sent in the midst of them. 17 And I shall take the cup from the hand of Jehovah, and I shall cause all the nations. which Jehovah sent me to them to drink. 18 Jerusalem and the cities of Judah and her kings, her chiefs, to give them for a waste and for a desolation, and for a hissing and for a cursing; as this day. 19 Pharaoh king of Egypt and his servants, and his chiefs, and all his people. 20 And all the intermingled, and all the kings of the land of Uz, and all the kings of the land of the rovers, and Ashkelon, and Azzah, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod, 21 Edom and Moab and the sons of Ammon, 22 And all the kings of Tyre, and all the kings of Zidon, and the kings of the island which is beyond the sea, 23 Dedan and Tema, and Buz, and all the cutting off the extremity, 24 And all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the intermingled dwelling in the desert, 25 And all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes. 26 And all the kings of the North, being near and being far off, a man to his brother, and all the kingdoms of the land which are upon the face of the earth: and the king of Sheshach shall drink after them.
