Isaiah 51:17-23
17aAwaken yourself! Awaken yourself! Arise, O Jerusalem,You who have bdrunk from the hand of Yahweh the cup of His wrath;The 1chalice of reeling you have 2drained to the dregs.18There is anone to guide her among all the sons she has borne,Nor is there one to take hold of her by the hand among all the sons she has reared.19These two things have befallen you;Who will console you?The adevastation and destruction, famine and sword;How shall I comfort you?20Your sons have fainted;They alie helpless at the head of every street,Like an bantelope in a net,Full of the wrath of Yahweh,The crebuke of your God.21Therefore, now, listen to this, you aafflicted,Who are bdrunk, but not with wine:22Thus says your Lord, Yahweh, even your GodWho acontends for His people,“Behold, I have taken out of your hand the bcup of reeling,The 1chalice of My wrath;You will never drink it again.23“I will aset it into the hand of those who cause you grief,Who have said to 1you, ‘bLie down that we may walk over you.’You have even set your back down like the groundAnd like the street for those who walk over it.”
