Jeremiah 25:30-38
New International Version
Jeremiah 25:30-38
New International Version
30 “Now prophesy all these words against them and say to them:
“‘The Lord will roar(A) from on high;
he will thunder(B) from his holy dwelling(C)
and roar mightily against his land.
He will shout like those who tread(D) the grapes,
shout against all who live on the earth.
31 The tumult(E) will resound to the ends of the earth,
for the Lord will bring charges(F) against the nations;
he will bring judgment(G) on all(H) mankind
and put the wicked to the sword,(I)’”
declares the Lord.
32 This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“Look! Disaster(J) is spreading
from nation to nation;(K)
a mighty storm(L) is rising
from the ends of the earth.”(M)
33 At that time those slain(N) by the Lord will be everywhere—from one end of the earth to the other. They will not be mourned or gathered(O) up or buried,(P) but will be like dung lying on the ground.
34 Weep and wail, you shepherds;(Q)
roll(R) in the dust, you leaders of the flock.
For your time to be slaughtered(S) has come;
you will fall like the best of the rams.[a](T)
35 The shepherds will have nowhere to flee,
the leaders of the flock no place to escape.(U)
36 Hear the cry(V) of the shepherds,(W)
the wailing of the leaders of the flock,
for the Lord is destroying their pasture.
37 The peaceful meadows will be laid waste
because of the fierce anger of the Lord.
38 Like a lion(X) he will leave his lair,
and their land will become desolate(Y)
because of the sword[b] of the oppressor(Z)
and because of the Lord’s fierce anger.(AA)

Jeremiah 25:30-38
King James Version
Jeremiah 25:30-38
King James Version
30 Therefore prophesy thou against them all these words, and say unto them, The Lord shall roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation; he shall mightily roar upon his habitation; he shall give a shout, as they that tread the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.
31 A noise shall come even to the ends of the earth; for the Lord hath a controversy with the nations, he will plead with all flesh; he will give them that are wicked to the sword, saith the Lord.
32 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.
33 And the slain of the Lord shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the ground.
34 Howl, ye shepherds, and cry; and wallow yourselves in the ashes, ye principal of the flock: for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions are accomplished; and ye shall fall like a pleasant vessel.
35 And the shepherds shall have no way to flee, nor the principal of the flock to escape.
36 A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and an howling of the principal of the flock, shall be heard: for the Lord hath spoiled their pasture.
37 And the peaceable habitations are cut down because of the fierce anger of the Lord.
38 He hath forsaken his covert, as the lion: for their land is desolate because of the fierceness of the oppressor, and because of his fierce anger.
