Jeremiah 25:12-16
25:12 “‘But when the seventy years are over, I will punish the king of Babylon and his nation for their sins. I will make the land of Babylon an everlasting ruin. I, the Lord, affirm it!
25:13 I will bring on that land everything that I said I would. I will bring on it everything that is written in this book. I will bring on it everything that Jeremiah has prophesied against all the nations.
25:14 For many nations and great kings will make slaves of the king of Babylon and his nation too. I will repay them for all they have done!’”
Judah and the Nations Will Experience God’s Wrath
25:15 So the Lord, the God of Israel, spoke to me in a vision. “Take this cup from my hand. It is filled with the wine of my wrath. 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 and act insane. For I will send wars sweeping through them.”
Jeremiah 25:29
25:29 For take note, I am already beginning to bring disaster on the city that I call my own.
So how can you possibly avoid being punished?
You will not go unpunished! For I am proclaiming war against all who live on the earth. I, the
Lord who rules over all,
affirm it!’
