ESVEnglish Standard Version

For the day of the Lord is near upon all the nations.

As you have done, it shall be done to you;

your deeds shall return on your own head.

For as you have drunk on my holy mountain,

so all the nations shall drink continually;

they shall drink and swallow,

and shall be as though they had never been.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

“The day of the Lord is near

for all nations.

As you have done, it will be done to you;

your deeds will return upon your own head.

Just as you drank on my holy hill,

so all the nations will drink continually;

they will drink and drink

and be as if they had never been.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

For the day of the Lord is near,

against all the nations.

As you have done, it will be done to you;

what you deserve will return on your own head.

As you have drunk on my holy mountain,

so all the nations will drink continually.

They will drink and gulp down

and be as though they had never been.

NLTNew Living Translation

“The day is near when I, the Lord,

will judge all godless nations!

As you have done to Israel,

so it will be done to you.

All your evil deeds

will fall back on your own heads.

Just as you swallowed up my people

on my holy mountain,

so you and the surrounding nations

will swallow the punishment I pour out on you.

Yes, all you nations will drink and stagger

and disappear from history.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

“For the day of Yahweh is near against all the nations! Just as you have done, it will be done to you. Your deeds will return on your own head. For just as you have drunk on my holy mountain, all the nations will drink continually. They will drink and they will slurp, and they will be as if they had never been.

KJV 1900King James Version

For the day of the Lord is near upon all the heathen:

As thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee;

Thy reward shall return upon thine own head.

For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain,

So shall all the heathen drink continually,

Yea, they shall drink, and they shall swallow down,

And they shall be as though they had not been.
