20 The breath of our nostrils,
    the anointed of Yahweh,
    was taken in their pits;
of whom we said,
    under his shadow we will live among the nations.

21 Rejoice and be glad, daughter of Edom,
    who dwells in the land of Uz.
The cup will pass through to you also.
    You will be drunken,
    and will make yourself naked.

22 The punishment of your iniquity is accomplished, daughter of Zion.

He will visit your iniquity, daughter of Edom.
    He will uncover your sins.
