In their heat I will make their feasts, and I will make them drunken, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the LORD.
In their heat I will make their feasts - in the midst of their being heated with wine I will give them "their" potions-a very different cup to drink, but one which is their due-the wine-cup of my stupefying wrath (Jeremiah 25:15; Jeremiah 49:12; Isaiah 51:17; Lamentations 4:21).
I will make them drunken, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep - that they may exult, and, in the midst of their jubilant exultation, sleep the sleep of death, that knows no waking (Jeremiah 51:57; Isaiah 21:4-5).
