30 “Jeremiah, prophesy against them. Tell them,

“ ‘The Lord will roar from heaven like a lion.
    His voice will sound like thunder
    from his holy temple there.
He will roar loudly against his land.
    He will shout like those who stomp on grapes in winepresses.
    He will shout against everyone who lives on earth.
31 The noise of battle will be heard
    from one end of the earth to the other.
    That’s because the Lord will bring charges against the nations.
He will judge every human being.
    He will kill sinful people with his sword,’ ”
    announces the Lord.

32 The Lord who rules over all says,

“Look! Horrible trouble is spreading
    from one nation to another.
A mighty storm is rising.
    It is coming from a place
    that is very far away.”

30 “Now prophesy all these words against them and say to them:

“‘The Lord will roar(A) from on high;
    he will thunder(B) from his holy dwelling(C)
    and roar mightily against his land.
He will shout like those who tread(D) the grapes,
    shout against all who live on the earth.
31 The tumult(E) will resound to the ends of the earth,
    for the Lord will bring charges(F) against the nations;
he will bring judgment(G) on all(H) mankind
    and put the wicked to the sword,(I)’”
declares the Lord.

32 This is what the Lord Almighty says:

“Look! Disaster(J) is spreading
    from nation to nation;(K)
a mighty storm(L) is rising
    from the ends of the earth.”(M)
