"And thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Drink ye, and be drunken, and spew, and fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you." — Jeremiah 25:27 (ASV)
The metaphors denote the helplessness to which the nations are reduced by drinking the wine-cup of fury (Jeremiah 25:15).
