Isaiah 51:17-19
World English Bible
17 Awake, awake!
Stand up, Jerusalem,
you who have drunk from Yahweh’s hand the cup of his wrath.
You have drunken the bowl of the cup of staggering,
and drained it.
18 There is no one to guide her among all the sons to whom she has given birth;
and there is no one who takes her by the hand among all the sons whom she has brought up.
19 These two things have happened to you—
who will grieve with you?—
desolation and destruction,
and famine and the sword.
How can I comfort you?
Isaiah 51:17-19
New International Version
The Cup of the Lord’s Wrath
17 Awake, awake!(A)
Rise up, Jerusalem,
you who have drunk from the hand of the Lord
the cup(B) of his wrath,(C)
you who have drained to its dregs(D)
the goblet that makes people stagger.(E)
18 Among all the children(F) she bore
there was none to guide her;(G)
among all the children she reared
there was none to take her by the hand.(H)
19 These double calamities(I) have come upon you—
who can comfort you?(J)—
ruin and destruction,(K) famine(L) and sword(M)—
who can[a] console you?
