Isaiah 51:16-18
New International Reader's Version
16 I have put my words in your mouth.
I have kept you safe in the palm of my hand.
I set the heavens in place.
I laid the foundations of the earth.
I say to Zion, ‘You are my people.’ ”
The Cup of the Lord’s Great Anger
17 Wake up, Jerusalem!
Wake up! Get up!
The Lord has handed you the cup of his great anger.
And you have drunk from it.
That cup makes people unsteady on their feet.
And you have drunk from it to the very last drop.
18 Among all the children who were born to you
there was none to guide you.
Among all the children you brought up
there was none to lead you by the hand.
Isaiah 51:16-18
New International Version
16 I have put my words in your mouth(A)
and covered you with the shadow of my hand(B)—
I who set the heavens in place,
who laid the foundations of the earth,(C)
and who say to Zion, ‘You are my people.(D)’”
The Cup of the Lord’s Wrath
17 Awake, awake!(E)
Rise up, Jerusalem,
you who have drunk from the hand of the Lord
the cup(F) of his wrath,(G)
you who have drained to its dregs(H)
the goblet that makes people stagger.(I)
18 Among all the children(J) she bore
there was none to guide her;(K)
among all the children she reared
there was none to take her by the hand.(L)
