Take the time to read this, because this is happening in America. The text is early, so the spellings are "similar" to, but not the "same as," modern spellings:
Jeremiah 13:8-13 1611KJV -
[8]Then the word of the Lord came vnto me, saying;
[9]Thus saith the Lord; After this maner will I marre the pride of Iudah, and the great pride of Ierusalem.
[10]This euill people which refuse to heare my words, which walke in the imagination of their heart, and walke after other Gods to serue them and to worship them, shall euen be as this girdle, which is good for nothing.
[11]For as the girdle cleaueth to the loines of a man: so haue I caused to cleaue vnto me the whole house of Israel, and the whole house of Iudah, saith the Lord; that they might bee vnto me for a people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for a glory: but they would not heare.
[12]¶ Therefore thou shalt speake vnto them this word; Thus saith the Lord God of Israel; Euerie botle shalbe filled with wine: and they shall say vnto thee; Doe we not certainly know, that euery botle shall be filled with wine?
[13]Then shalt thou say vnto them; Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, euen the kings that sit vpon Dauids throne, and the priests and the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Ierusalem with drunkennesse.
I feel a word: There is more, for those, who "read, and understand." There, is more, for those, and we, who hear, and see, and comprehend, and perceive. Pray about this in this time and season, of the world. God Bless you.
