God’s Fury Removed

17 (A)Awake, awake!
Stand up, O Jerusalem,
You who (B)have drunk at the hand of the Lord
The cup of His fury;
You have drunk the dregs of the cup of trembling,
And drained it out.
18 There is no one to guide her
Among all the sons she has brought forth;
Nor is there any who takes her by the hand
Among all the sons she has brought up.
19 (C)These two things have come to you;
Who will be sorry for you?—
Desolation and destruction, famine and sword—
(D)By whom will I comfort you?
20 (E)Your sons have fainted,
They lie at the head of all the streets,
Like an antelope in a net;
They are full of the fury of the Lord,
The rebuke of your God.
