Jeremiah 25:29 in Context — Jeremiah 25

27 Pois tu lhes dirás: Assim diz o SENHOR dos exércitos, Deus de Israel: Bebei, e embriagai-vos, vomitai, caí, e não vos levanteis, por causa da espada que eu envio entre vós.

28 E será que, se não querem tomar o copo de tua mão para beber, então tu lhes dirás: Assim diz o SENHOR dos exércitos: Certamente bebereis;

29 Pois eis que na cidade que se chama pelo meu nome eu começo a castigar; e vós ficaríeis impunes? Não ficareis impunes, porque eu estou chamando espada contra todos os moradores da terra, diz o SENHOR dos exércitos.

30 Tu, pois, profetizarás a eles todas estas palavras, e lhes dirás: O SENHOR bramará desde o alto, e levantará sua voz a sua santa morada; bramará intensamente sobre sua morada; dará forte grito, tal como os que pisam as uvas, contra todos os moradores da terra.

31 Chegará o estrondo até o extremo da terra; porque o SENHOR disputa com as nações; entrará em juízo com todos; [e] entregará os perversos à espada, diz o SENHOR.
