Isaiah 51:17-22

English Standard Version

^17 (A)Wake yourself, wake yourself,
    stand up, O Jerusalem,
^(B)you who have drunk from the hand of the Lord
    the cup of his wrath,
who have drunk to the dregs
    the bowl, ^(C)the cup of staggering.
^18 (D)There is none to guide her
    among all the sons she has borne;
there is none to take her by the hand
    among all the sons she has brought up.
^19 (E)These two things have happened to you—
    who will console you?—
devastation and destruction, famine and sword;
    who will comfort you?^[a]
20 (F)Your sons have fainted;
    they lie at the head of every street
    like an ^(G)antelope ^(H)in a net;
they are full of the wrath of the Lord,
    the rebuke of your God.

^21 (I)Therefore hear this, you who are afflicted,
    who are drunk, but not with wine:
²² Thus says your Lord, the Lord,
    your God ^(J)who pleads the cause of his people:
“Behold, I have taken from your hand ^(K)the cup of staggering;
the bowl of my wrath you shall drink no more;
