14 You should not have stood at the crossroads
To cut off those among them who escaped;
Nor should you have [a]delivered up those among them who remained
In the day of distress.

15 “For(A) the day of the Lord upon all the nations is near;
(B)As you have done, it shall be done to you;
Your [b]reprisal shall return upon your own head.
16 (C)For as you drank on My holy mountain,
So shall all the nations drink continually;
Yes, they shall drink, and swallow,
And they shall be as though they had never been.
