17 Wake yourself, wake yourself up! Stand up, Jerusalem, you who have drunk the cup of His fury from the hand of the LORD; you who have drunk the goblet to the dregs— the cup that causes people to stagger. 18 There is no one to guide her among all the children she has raised; there is no one to take hold of her hand among all the offspring she has brought up. 19 These two things have happened to you: devastation and destruction, famine and sword. Who will grieve for you? How can I comfort you? 20 Your children have fainted; they lie at the head of every street like an antelope in a net. They are full of the LORD’s fury, the rebuke of your God. 21 So listen to this, afflicted and drunken one—but not with wine. 22 This is what your Lord says— Yahweh, even your God, who defends His people—” Look, I have removed the cup of staggering from your hand; that goblet, the cup of My fury. You will never drink it again. Isaiah 51:17-22, Holman Christian Standard Bible. Copyright © 1999, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2009 by Holman Bible Publishers.
