Dregs [1]

dregs : The "sediments," "lees," "grounds of liquor"; only in plural. In the King James Version it stands for: (1) Hebrew ḳubba‛ath , "bowl," "chalice," found only in Isaiah 51:17 , Isaiah 51:22 : "the dregs of the cup of trembling"; "the dregs of the cup of my fury." the Revised Version (British and American) correctly changes "dregs" into "bowl." (2) Hebrew shemārı̄m , "sediments" or "dregs," especially lees of wine. "The dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wring (the American Standard Revised Version "drain") them out and drink them" ( Psalm 75:8 ), i.e. God gives to the wicked the cup of wrathful judgment, which they must drink to the last drop.
