Jeremiah 25:25 In-Context

23 D'dan, Teima, Buz and all who cut the corners of their beards;
24 all the kings of Arabia and of the mixed peoples living in the desert;
25 all the kings of Zimri, of 'Eilam and of the Medes;
26 and all the kings of the north, far and near, one after another - indeed, all the kingdoms of the world that there are on the surface of the earth. And the king of Sheshakh will drink last of all.
27 "You are to say to them, 'Here is what ADONAI-Tzva'ot, the God of Isra'el, says: Drink until you're so drunk that you throw up, fall down, and never get up again, because of the sword I am sending among you!'
