Jeremiah 27:7

And all nations shall serve him, and his son, and his son’s son, until the very time of his land come: and then many nations and great kings shall serve themselves of him.
5

I have made the earth, the man and the beast that are upon the ground, by my great power and by my outstretched arm, and have given it unto whom it seemed meet unto me.

6

And now have I given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant; and the beasts of the field have I given him also to serve him.

7

And all nations shall serve him, and his son, and his son’s son, until the very time of his land come: and then many nations and great kings shall serve themselves of him.

8

And it shall come to pass, that the nation and kingdom which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, and that will not put their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, that nation will I punish, saith the Lord, with the sword, and with the famine, and with the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand.

Sequential Timeline

The verse describes a period of servitude followed by a shift in power, but it doesn't explicitly detail a series of distinct, chronologically ordered events beyond this general progression.

Prophecy Fulfilled Literally

The verse describes a period of servitude to a king and his descendants, and then a subsequent period where "many nations and great kings shall serve themselves of him," which could be interpreted metaphorically as gaining advantage or resources from him, rather than a literal, concrete fulfillment of land promises to Israel.

Time-Bound Fulfillment

The phrase "until the very time of his land come" is somewhat vague and does not specify a precise duration or a clearly recognizable event for its fulfillment, making it less of a "defined duration" than some other prophecies.
