Contextual Overview
30"Therefore prophesy all these words against them and say to them: 'The LORD will roar from on high And utter His voice from His holy dwelling; He will roar mightily against His fold and pasture. He will jubilantly shout like those who tread the grapes [in the wine press], Against all the inhabitants of the earth. 31'A noise has come to the end of the earth, For the LORD has a controversy with and an indictment against the nations. He is entering into judgment with all mankind; As for the wicked, He has given them to the sword,' says the LORD." 32Thus says the LORD of hosts, "Behold, evil is going forth From nation to nation, And a great whirling tempest is rising From the remotest part of the earth.33"And those slain by the LORD on that day will be from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth. They will not be lamented (mourned over with expressions of grief) or gathered or buried; they will be like dung on the ground. 34"Wail, you shepherds, and cry; And roll in ashes, you masters of the flock. For the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions have come in full, And you will fall and be broken into pieces like a choice vessel. 35"The shepherds will have no way to flee, Nor the masters of the flock any [way of] escape. 36"A voice! The cry of the shepherds And the wailing of the masters of the flock! For the LORD is destroying their pasture, 37And the peaceful folds are devastated and made silent Because of the fierce anger of the LORD. 38"He has left His lair like the lion; For their land has become a horror Because of the fierceness of the oppressor And because of the LORD'S fierce anger."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Thus saith the Lord of hosts, behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation,.... Begin in one nation, and then go on to another; first in Judea, and then in Egypt; and so on, like a catching distemper, or like fire that first consumes one house, and then another; and thus shall the cup go round from nation to nation, before prophesied of: thus, beginning at Judea, one nation after another was destroyed by the king of Babylon; then he and his monarchy were destroyed by the Medes and Persians; and then they by the Macedonians; and then the Greeks by the Romans;
and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth; or "from the sides of [it]" t; that is, "from the ends of [it]"; as the Targum, which paraphrases it,
"and many people shall come openly from the ends of the earth;''
this was first verified in the Chaldean army under Nebuchadnezzar, compared to a whirlwind, Jeremiah 4:13; and then in the Medes and Persians under Cyrus; and after that in the Greeks under Alexander; the great and last of all in the Romans under Titus Vespasian.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
A great whirlwind - Or, storm.
The coasts of the earth - See Jeremiah 6:22 note. The thunderstorm seen first on the edge of the horizon overspreads the heaven, and travels from nation to nation in its destructive course.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 25:32. Evil shall go forth from nation to nation — One nation after another shall fall before the Chaldeans.
