Isaiah 51:15-17
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
15 For I am the Lord, your God,
who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar;
the Lord of hosts by name.(A)
16 I have put my words into your mouth,
I covered you, shielded by my hand,
Stretching out the heavens,
laying the foundations of the earth,
saying to Zion: You are my people.
The Cup of the Lord
17 Wake up, wake up!
Arise, Jerusalem,
You who drank at the Lord’s hand
the cup of his wrath;
Who drained to the dregs
the bowl of staggering!(B)
