Jeremiah 25:25 In-Context

23 the people of Dedan and Tema and Buz; all who cut their hair short;
24 all the kings of Arabia; and the kings of the people who live in the desert;
25 all the kings of Zimri, Elam, and Media;
26 and all the kings of the north, near and far, one after the other. I made all the kingdoms on earth drink from the cup of the Lord's anger, but the king of Babylon will drink from this cup after all the others.
27 "Then say to them, 'This is what the Lord All-Powerful, the God of Israel, says: Drink this cup of my anger. Get drunk from it and vomit. Fall down and don't get up because of the war I am sending among you!'
