Jeremiah 25:30-38
Jeremiah 25:30-38 NCV
“You, Jeremiah, will prophesy against them with all these words. Say to them: ‘The LORD will roar from heaven and will shout from his Holy Temple. He will roar loudly against his land. He will shout like people who walk on grapes to make wine; he will shout against all who live on the earth. The noise will spread all over the earth, because the LORD will accuse all the nations. He will judge and tell what is wrong with all people, and he will kill the evil people with a sword,’ ” says the LORD. This is what the LORD All-Powerful says: “Disasters will soon spread from nation to nation. They will come like a powerful storm from the faraway places on earth.” At that time those killed by the LORD will reach from one end of the earth to the other. No one will cry for them or gather up their bodies and bury them. They will be left lying on the ground like dung. Cry, you leaders! Cry out loud! Roll around in the dust, leaders of the people! It is now time for you to be killed. You will fall and be scattered, like pieces of a broken jar. There will be no place for the leaders to hide; they will not escape. I hear the sound of the leaders shouting. I hear the leaders of the people crying loudly, because the LORD is destroying their land. Those peaceful pastures will be like an empty desert, because the LORD is very angry. Like a lion, he has left his den. Their land has been destroyed because of the terrible war he brought, because of his fierce anger.
