51:7Babylonia had been a gold cup in the Lord’s hand.
She had made the whole world drunk.
The nations had drunk from the wine of her wrath.20
So they have all gone mad.21
Footnotes
- 20 The words “of her wrath” are not in the Hebrew text but are supplied in the translation to help those readers who are not familiar with the figure of the “cup of the Lord’s wrath.” The figure of the cup of the Lord’s wrath invoked in Jer 25:15–29 is invoked again here and Babylon is identified as the agent through which the wrath of the Lord is visited on the other nations. See the study note on for explanation and further references.
- 21 Heb “upon the grounds of such conditions the nations have gone mad.”
