Jeremiah 25:15

1798–1870
Presbyterian
SCRIPTURE

"For thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, unto me: take this cup of the wine of wrath at my hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send thee, to drink it." — Jeremiah 25:15 (ASV)

Says - Or, has said. This prophecy—placed by the Septuagint after those against the nations—forms an impressive statement of the manner in which the new kingdom of Babylon was to execute Yahweh’s wrath upon the nations far and near.
