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.
