11. This whole land shall be a ruin and a waste. Seventy years these nations shall serve the king of Babylon;
12. but when the seventy years have elapsed, I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation and the land of the Chaldeans for their guilt—oracle of the Lord. Their land I will turn into everlasting waste.
13. Against that land I will fulfill all the words I have spoken against it, all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah prophesied against all the nations.
14. They also shall serve many nations and great kings, and thus I will repay them according to their own deeds and according to the works of their hands.
15. For thus said the Lord, the God of Israel, to me: Take this cup of the wine of wrath from my hand and have all the nations to whom I will send you drink it.
16. They shall drink, and retch, and go mad, because of the sword I will send among them.
17. I took the cup from the hand of the Lord and gave it as drink to all the nations to whom the Lord sent me:
18. to Jerusalem, the cities of Judah, its kings and princes, to make them a ruin and a waste, an object of hissing and cursing, as they are today;
19. to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and his servants, princes, all his people
20. and those of mixed ancestry; all the kings of the land of Uz; all the kings of the land of the Philistines: Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;
21. Edom, Moab, and the Ammonites;
22. all the kings of Tyre, of Sidon, and of the shores beyond the sea;
