And they shall be drunk with their own (B)blood as with sweet wine.
All flesh (C)shall know
That I, the Lord, am your Savior,
And your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.”

22 Thus says your Lord,
The Lord and your God,
Who (A)pleads the cause of His people:
“See, I have taken out of your hand
The cup of trembling,

You shall no longer drink it.

Who have said to [a]you,
‘Lie down, that we may walk over you.’
And you have laid your body like the ground,
And as the street, for those who walk over.”
