Isaiah 51:18-20

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

¹⁸ There is no one to guide her
    among all the children she has borne;
there is no one to take her by the hand
    among all the children she has brought up.
¹⁹ These two things have befallen you
    —who will grieve with you?—
devastation and destruction, famine and sword—
    who will comfort you?^[a]
20 Your children have fainted,
    they lie at the head of every street
    like an antelope in a net;
they are full of the wrath of the Lord,
    the rebuke of your God.
