Jeremiah 13:11-13
American Standard Version
11 For as the girdle cleaveth to the loins of a man, so have I caused to cleave unto me the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah, saith Jehovah; that they may be unto me for a people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for a glory: but they would not hear.
12 Therefore thou shalt speak unto them this word: Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, Every [a]bottle shall be filled with wine: and they shall say unto thee, Do we not certainly know that every [b]bottle shall be filled with wine? 13 Then shalt thou say unto them, Thus saith Jehovah, Behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, even the kings that sit [c]upon David’s throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with drunkenness.
