"so all the nations will drink in suffering continually" or "so I will punish all of the nations without stopping"

Here "swallow" expresses that they will fully experience the punishment, with the result that it will destroy them completely. Alternate translation: "They will drink in my punishment fully until they cease to exist" or "I will continue to punish them fully until I completely destroy them"
