13 ὅσα ἐπροφήτευσεν ιερεμιας ἐπὶ πάντα τὰ ἔθνη

15 οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς ισραηλ λαβὲ τὸ ποτήριον τοῦ οἴνου τοῦ ἀκράτου τούτου ἐκ χειρός μου καὶ ποτιεῖς πάντα τὰ ἔθνη πρὸς ἃ ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω σε πρὸς αὐτούς

16 καὶ πίονται καὶ ἐξεμοῦνται καὶ μανήσονται ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς μαχαίρας ἧς ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω ἀνὰ μέσον αὐτῶν

17 καὶ ἔλαβον τὸ ποτήριον ἐκ χειρὸς κυρίου καὶ ἐπότισα τὰ ἔθνη πρὸς ἃ ἀπέστειλέν με κύριος ἐπ' αὐτά

18 τὴν ιερουσαλημ καὶ τὰς πόλεις ιουδα καὶ βασιλεῖς ιουδα καὶ ἄρχοντας αὐτοῦ τοῦ θεῖναι αὐτὰς εἰς ἐρήμωσιν καὶ εἰς ἄβατον καὶ εἰς συριγμὸν

19 καὶ τὸν φαραω βασιλέα αἰγύπτου καὶ τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς μεγιστᾶνας αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ

20 καὶ πάντας τοὺς συμμίκτους αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντας τοὺς βασιλεῖς ἀλλοφύλων τὴν ἀσκαλῶνα καὶ τὴν γάζαν καὶ τὴν ακκαρων καὶ τὸ ἐπίλοιπον ἀζώτου

21 καὶ τὴν ιδουμαίαν καὶ τὴν μωαβῖτιν καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αμμων

22 καὶ πάντας βασιλεῖς τύρου καὶ βασιλεῖς σιδῶνος καὶ βασιλεῖς τοὺς ἐν τῷ πέραν τῆς θαλάσσης

23 καὶ τὴν δαιδαν καὶ τὴν θαιμαν καὶ τὴν ρως καὶ πᾶν περικεκαρμένον κατὰ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ

24 καὶ πάντας τοὺς συμμίκτους τοὺς καταλύοντας ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ

25 καὶ πάντας βασιλεῖς αιλαμ καὶ πάντας βασιλεῖς περσῶν

26 καὶ πάντας βασιλεῖς ἀπὸ ἀπηλιώτου τοὺς πόρρω καὶ τοὺς ἐγγύς ἕκαστον πρὸς τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ πάσας τὰς βασιλείας τὰς ἐπὶ προσώπου τῆς γῆς

27 καὶ ἐρεῖς αὐτοῖς οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος παντοκράτωρ πίετε καὶ μεθύσθητε καὶ ἐξεμέσατε καὶ πεσεῖσθε καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀναστῆτε ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς μαχαίρας ἧς ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω ἀνὰ μέσον ὑμῶν

28 καὶ ἔσται ὅταν μὴ βούλωνται δέξασθαι τὸ ποτήριον ἐκ τῆς χειρός σου ὥστε πιεῖν καὶ ἐρεῖς οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος πιόντες πίεσθε

29 ὅτι ἐν πόλει ἐν ᾗ ὠνομάσθη τὸ ὄνομά μου ἐπ' αὐτήν ἐγὼ ἄρχομαι κακῶσαι καὶ ὑμεῖς καθάρσει οὐ μὴ καθαρισθῆτε ὅτι μάχαιραν ἐγὼ καλῶ ἐπὶ τοὺς καθημένους ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς

30 καὶ σὺ προφητεύσεις ἐπ' αὐτοὺς τοὺς λόγους τούτους καὶ ἐρεῖς κύριος ἀφ' ὑψηλοῦ χρηματιεῖ ἀπὸ τοῦ ἁγίου αὐτοῦ δώσει φωνὴν αὐτοῦ λόγον χρηματιεῖ ἐπὶ τοῦ τόπου αὐτοῦ καὶ αιδαδ ὥσπερ τρυγῶντες ἀποκριθήσονται καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς καθημένους ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν

31 ἥκει ὄλεθρος ἐπὶ μέρος τῆς γῆς ὅτι κρίσις τῷ κυρίῳ ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν κρίνεται αὐτὸς πρὸς πᾶσαν σάρκα οἱ δὲ ἀσεβεῖς ἐδόθησαν εἰς μάχαιραν λέγει κύριος

32 οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ἰδοὺ κακὰ ἔρχεται ἀπὸ ἔθνους ἐπὶ ἔθνος καὶ λαῖλαψ μεγάλη ἐκπορεύεται ἀπ' ἐσχάτου τῆς γῆς

33 καὶ ἔσονται τραυματίαι ὑπὸ κυρίου ἐν ἡμέρᾳ κυρίου ἐκ μέρους τῆς γῆς καὶ ἕως εἰς μέρος τῆς γῆς οὐ μὴ κατορυγῶσιν εἰς κόπρια ἐπὶ προσώπου τῆς γῆς ἔσονται

34 ἀλαλάξατε ποιμένες καὶ κεκράξατε καὶ κόπτεσθε οἱ κριοὶ τῶν προβάτων ὅτι ἐπληρώθησαν αἱ ἡμέραι ὑμῶν εἰς σφαγήν καὶ πεσεῖσθε ὥσπερ οἱ κριοὶ οἱ ἐκλεκτοί

35 καὶ ἀπολεῖται φυγὴ ἀπὸ τῶν ποιμένων καὶ σωτηρία ἀπὸ τῶν κριῶν τῶν προβάτων

36 φωνὴ κραυγῆς τῶν ποιμένων καὶ ἀλαλαγμὸς τῶν προβάτων καὶ τῶν κριῶν ὅτι ὠλέθρευσεν κύριος τὰ βοσκήματα αὐτῶν

37 καὶ παύσεται τὰ κατάλοιπα τῆς εἰρήνης ἀπὸ προσώπου ὀργῆς θυμοῦ μου

38 ἐγκατέλιπεν ὥσπερ λέων κατάλυμα αὐτοῦ ὅτι ἐγενήθη ἡ γῆ αὐτῶν εἰς ἄβατον ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς μαχαίρας τῆς μεγάλης

57. IV. THE FOURTH STATE OF THE CHURCH WAS THE PROFANATION OF HOLY THINGS, AND THEN WAS ITS CONSUMMATION OR NIGHT. Vastation and consummation differ from each other, as do the shade of evening and the thick darkness of night; for vastation is a receding from the Church, but consummation a complete separation from it. Vastation, therefore, is as when any one descends from heaven but not as far as to hell, and tarries in the middle, standing near both; but consummation exists when any one, standing thus, turns his face and breast to hell, and his back and the hinder part of his head to. heaven; in like manner as happened with the Dragon and his angels when they were cast down out of heaven (concerning which see Rev. 12): while they were fighting with Michael, they were in the middle; but when vanquished, they were in hell. Vastation takes place when man looks upon the holy things of the Church from falsities and falsified truths; but consummation when he lives in evils or in adulterated goods.

[2] But, that the difference and distinction between the state of vastation and the state of consummation may be still more clearly grasped, it shall be illustrated by comparisons. The state of vastation may be compared with a certain garden, or grove, round a temple-which garden, by reason of the Divine worship performed in the temple, is regarded as holy-in which are places for drinking, feasting, dancing, and histrionics and farce, with spectators in the courts and windows of the temple; but the state of consummation may be compared to the same garden, or grove, in which are satyrs and libertines, with harlots and witches, who all together enter the temple dancing, and there celebrate profane revels, as the Pythons in their sabbaths.

[3] The state of vastation may also be compared with a hostile army, when it enters the suburbs of a besieged city and rules them; but the state of consummation may be compared with the same army, when it has demolished the wall, and rushes into the city and gives the inhabitants over to destruction. The state of vastation may further be compared with a ship upon sandbanks, or a sandy shore, when it is violently battered there, and tossed up and down, and the steersman, captain and sailors bewail on account of their danger; but the state is one of consummation when the ship's keel is fretted away by the gravel beneath, and the ship, being shattered and pierced with holes, sinks, and those on board, and the cargo, perish in the waves.

[4] The state of vastation may be compared with every disease which invades the members, viscera and organs of the body, by reason of which the patient apprehends death, consults a physician, takes medicines, and all the while lies in bed in hope of recovery; but the state of consummation may be compared with the same disease when it invades the breast, where the heart and lungs reside as in their tabernacle, into which when the disease penetrates, it makes an end of the life of the body.
