Jeremiah 32 — parallel

32:15

Thus said the Lord God of Israel; Take the cup of this unmixed wine from mine hand, and thou shalt cause all the nations to drink, to whom I send thee.

^25:29 For behold, I am beginning to bring disaster on the city that bears My Name, so how could you possibly go unpunished? You will not go unpunished, for I am calling down a sword upon all the inhabitants of the earth, declares the LORD of Hosts.’

32:16

And they shall drink, and vomit, and be mad, because of the sword which I send among them.

^25:30 So you are to prophesy all these words against them and say to them: ‘The LORD will roar from on high; He will raise His voice from His holy habitation. He will roar loudly over His pasture; like those who tread the grapes, He will call out with a shout against all the inhabitants of the earth.

32:17

So I took the cup out of the Lord's hand, and caused the nations to whom the Lord sent me to drink:

^25:31 The tumult will resound to the ends of the earth because the LORD brings a charge against the nations. He brings judgment on all mankind and puts the wicked to the sword,’” declares the LORD.

32:18

Jerusalem, and the cities of Juda, and the kings of Juda, and his princes, to make them a desert place, a desolation, and a hissing;

^25:32 This is what the LORD of Hosts says: “Behold! Disaster is spreading from nation to nation; a mighty storm is rising from the ends of the earth.”

32:19

and Pharao king of Egypt, and his servants, and his nobles, and all his people;

^25:33 Those slain by the LORD on that day will be spread from one end of the earth to the other. They will not be mourned, gathered, or buried. They will be like dung lying on the ground.

32:20

and all the mingled [people], and all the kings of the Philistines, and Ascalon, and Gaza, and Accaron, and the remnant of Azotus,

^25:34 Wail, you shepherds, and cry out; roll in the dust, you leaders of the flock. For the days of your slaughter have come; you will fall and be shattered like fine .

32:21

and Idumea, and the land of Moab, and the children of Ammon,

^25:35 Flight will evade the shepherds, and escape will elude the leaders of the flock.

32:22

and the kings of Tyre, and the kings of Sidon, and the kings in the [country] beyond the sea,

^25:36 Hear the cry of the shepherds, the wailing of the leaders of the flock, for the LORD is destroying their pasture.

32:23

and Dædan, and Thæman, and Ros, and every one that is shaved round about the face,

^25:37 The peaceful meadows have been silenced because of the LORD’s burning anger.

32:24

and all the mingled [people] lodging in the wilderness,

^25:38 He has left His den like a lion, for their land has been made a desolation by of the oppressor, and because of the fierce anger of the LORD.

32:25

and all the kings of Ælam, and all the kings of the Persians,

Yet You, O Lord GOD, have said to me, ‘Buy for yourself the field with silver and call in witnesses, even though the city has been delivered into the hands of the Chaldeans!’”

32:26

and all the kings from the north, the far and the near, each one with his brother, and all the kingdoms which are on the face of the earth.

Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:

32:27

And thou shalt say to them, Thus said the Lord Almighty; Drink ye, be ye drunken; and ye shall vomit, and shall fall, and shall in nowise rise, because of the sword which I send among you.

“Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Is anything too difficult for Me?

32:28

And it shall come to pass, when they refuse to take the cup out of thine hand, to drink it, that thou shalt say, Thus said the Lord; Ye shall surely drink.

Therefore this is what the LORD says: Behold, I am about to deliver this city into the hands of the Chaldeans and of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, who will capture it.

32:29

For I am beginning to afflict the city whereon my name is called, and ye shall by no means be held guiltless: for I am calling a sword upon all that dwell upon the earth.

And the Chaldeans who are fighting against this city will come in, set it on fire, and burn it, along with the houses of those who provoked Me to anger by burning incense to Baal on their rooftops and by pouring out drink offerings to other gods.

32:30

And thou shalt prophesy against them these words, and shalt say, The Lord shall speak from on high, from his sanctuary he will utter his voice; he will pronounce a declaration on his place; and these shall answer like men gathering grapes: and destruction is coming on them that dwell on the earth,

For the children of Israel and of Judah have done nothing but evil in My sight from their youth; indeed, they have done nothing but provoke Me to anger by the work of their hands, declares the LORD.

32:31

[even] upon [the extreme] part of the earth; for the Lord [has] a controversy with the nations, he is pleading with all flesh, and the ungodly are given to the sword, saith the Lord.

For this city has aroused My wrath and fury from the day it was built until now. Therefore I will remove it from My presence

32:32

Thus said the Lord; Behold, evils are proceeding from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind goes forth from the end of the earth.

because of all the evil the children of Israel and of Judah have done to provoke Me to anger—they, their kings, their officials, their priests and prophets, the men of Judah, and the residents of Jerusalem.

32:33

And the slain of the Lord shall be in the day of the Lord from [one] end of the earth even to the [other] end of the earth: they shall not be buried; they shall be as dung on the face of the earth.

They have turned their backs to Me and not their faces. Though I taught them again and again, they would not listen or respond to discipline.

32:34

Howl, ye shepherds, and cry; and lament, ye rams of the flock: for your days have been completed for slaughter, and ye shall fall as the choice rams.

They have placed their abominations in the house that bears My Name, and so have defiled it.

32:35

And flight shall perish from the shepherds, and safety from the rams of the flock.

They have built the high places of Baal in the Valley of Ben-hinnom to make their sons and daughters pass through the fire to Molech—something I never commanded them, nor had it ever entered My mind, that they should commit such an abomination and cause Judah to sin.

32:36

A voice of the crying of the shepherds, and a moaning of the sheep and the rams: for the Lord has destroyed their pastures.

Now therefore, about this city of which you say, ‘It will be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon by sword and famine and plague,’ this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says:

32:37

And the peaceable abodes that remain shall be destroyed before the fierceness of my anger.

I will surely gather My people from all the lands to which I have banished them in My furious anger and great wrath, and I will return them to this place and make them dwell in safety.

32:38

He has forsaken his lair, as a lion: for their land is become desolate before the great sword.

They will be My people, and I will be their .
