29 For behold, I am (A)beginning to bring evil against this city which is (B)called by My name. But shall you be completely free from punishment? You will not be free from punishment, for (C)I am calling for a sword against all the inhabitants of the earth,” declares Yahweh of hosts.’

30 “Therefore you shall prophesy against them all these words, and you shall say to them,

(D)Yahweh will (E)roar from on high
And give forth His voice from His holy habitation;
He will roar mightily against His [a]pasture.
He will bellow a shout like those who tread the grapes,
Against all the inhabitants of the earth.
31 A rumbling has come to the end of the earth
Because Yahweh has (F)a contention against the nations.
He is entering into (G)judgment with all flesh;
As for the wicked, He has given them to the sword,’ declares Yahweh.”

  1. Jeremiah 25:30 Or habitation

29 See, I am beginning to bring disaster(A) on the city that bears my Name,(B) and will you indeed go unpunished?(C) You will not go unpunished, for I am calling down a sword(D) on all(E) who live on the earth,(F) declares the Lord Almighty.’

30 “Now prophesy all these words against them and say to them:

“‘The Lord will roar(G) from on high;
    he will thunder(H) from his holy dwelling(I)
    and roar mightily against his land.
He will shout like those who tread(J) the grapes,
    shout against all who live on the earth.
31 The tumult(K) will resound to the ends of the earth,
    for the Lord will bring charges(L) against the nations;
he will bring judgment(M) on all(N) mankind
    and put the wicked to the sword,(O)’”
declares the Lord.
