Isaiah 51:17-22

New King James Version

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.
¹⁸There 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.

²¹Therefore please hear this, you afflicted,
And drunk ^(F)but not with wine.
²²Thus says your Lord,
The Lord and your God,
Who ^(G)pleads the cause of His people:
“See, I have taken out of your hand
The cup of trembling,
The dregs of the cup of My fury;
You shall no longer drink it.

³⁹He went a little farther and fell on His face, and ^(A)prayed, saying, ^(B)“O My Father, if it is possible, ^(C)let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, ^(D)not as I will, but as You will.”
