Yahweh continues his metaphor in which he speaks of the cities of Jerusalem and Samaria as if they were two prostitutes. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
# You will be filled with drunkenness and sorrow
This speaks of being very drunk and full of sorrow as if drunkenness and sorrow were things that filled her body. Alternate translation: "You will become very drunk and very sad" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
# the cup of horror and devastation
"the cup that causes horror and devastation." The words "horror" and "devastation" share similar meanings here and emphasize how terrible her punishment will be. Alternate translation: "for what is in that cup causes horror and devastation" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-doublet]])
# the cup of your sister Samaria
Oholibah's sister Oholah represents Samaria. Samaria is called by it's name but still referred to as a sister. The cup is a symbol for the punishment that she received. Alternate translation: "for this is the same cup of punishment that your sister, who represents Samaria, drank" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
