Isaiah 51:18-20
GOD’S WORD Translation
18 From all the children she gave birth to,
there was no one to guide her.
From all the children she raised,
there was no one to take her by the hand.
19 Twice as many disasters have happened to you.
Who will feel sorry for you?
Violence, destruction, famine, and war have happened to you.
Who will comfort you?
20 Your children have fainted.
They lie sleeping at every street corner.
They are like an antelope caught in a net.
They experience the anger of the Lord,
the fury of your God.
Isaiah 51:18-20

there was none to guide her;(B)
among all the children she reared
there was none to take her by the hand.(C)
19 These double calamities(D) have come upon you—
who can comfort you?(E)—
ruin and destruction,(F) famine(G) and sword(H)—
who can[a] console you?

they lie at every street corner,(I)
like antelope caught in a net.(J)
They are filled with the wrath(K) of the Lord,
with the rebuke(L) of your God.
