22 This is what your Lord, the Lord, your God
Who (A)contends for His people says:
“Behold, I have taken from your hand the (B)cup of staggering,
The [a]chalice of My anger;
You will never drink it again.
23 I will (C)put it into the hand of your tormentors,
Who have said to [b]you, ‘(D)Lie down so that we may walk over you.’
You have also made your back like the ground,
And like the street for those who walk over it.”
Cheer for Prostrate Zion
52 (E)Awake, awake,
Clothe yourself in your strength, Zion;
Clothe yourself with your (F)beautiful garments,
Jerusalem, the (G)holy city;
For the uncircumcised and the (H)unclean
Will no longer come into you.
