Jeremias 25:17-28

Listen to Jeremias 25:17-28
17 Então peguei o cálice da mão do SENHOR, e fiz com que dele bebessem todas as nações às quais o SENHOR me enviou:
18 Jerusalém e as cidades de Judá, seus reis e seus líderes, para fazer deles uma desolação e um objeto de pavor, zombaria e maldição, como hoje acontece;
19 o faraĂł, o rei do Egito, seus conselheiros e seus lĂ­deres, todo o seu povo
20 e todos os estrangeiros que lá residem; todos os reis de Uz; todos os reis dos filisteus: de Ascalom, Gaza, Ecrom e o povo que restou em Asdode;
21 Edom, Moabe e os amonitas,
22 os reis de Tiro e de Sidom; os reis das ilhas e das terras de além-mar;
23 Dedã, Temá, Buz e todos os que rapam a cabeça;
24 e os reis da Arábia e todos os reis dos estrangeiros que vivem no deserto;
25 todos os reis de Zinri, de Elão e da Média;
26 e todos os reis do norte, próximos ou distantes, um após outro; e todos os reinos da face da terra. Depois de todos eles, o rei de Sesaque[a] também beberá do cálice.
27 “A seguir diga-lhes: Assim diz o SENHOR dos Exércitos, o Deus de Israel: Bebam, embriaguem-se, vomitem, caiam e não mais se levantem, por causa da espada que envio no meio de vocês.
28 Mas, se eles se recusarem a beber, diga-lhes: Assim diz o SENHOR dos Exércitos: Vocês vão bebê-lo!

Jeremias 25:17-28 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO JEREMIAH 25

This chapter contains a prophecy of the destruction of Judea by the king of Babylon; and also of Babylon itself, after the Jews' captivity of seventy years; and likewise of all the nations round about. The date of this prophecy is in Jer 25:1; when the prophet puts the Jews in mind of the prophecies that had been delivered unto them by himself and others, for some years past, without effect, Jer 25:2-7; wherefore they are threatened with the king of Babylon, that he should come against them, and strip them of all their desirable things; make their land desolate, and them captives for seventy years, Jer 25:8-11; at the expiration of which he in his turn shall be punished, and the land of Chaldea laid waste, and become subject to other nations and kings, Jer 25:12-14; and by a cup of wine given to all the nations round about, is signified the utter ruin of them, and who are particularly mentioned by name, Jer 25:15-26; which is confirmed by beginning with the city of Jerusalem, and the destruction of that, Jer 25:27-29; wherefore the prophet is bid to prophesy against them, and to declare the Lord's controversy with them, and that there should be a slaughter of them from one end of the earth to the other, Jer 25:30-33; upon which the shepherds, kings, and rulers of them, are called to lamentation and howling, Jer 25:34-38.
