Isaiah 51:19-23

19These two things have happened to you— who will console you?— devastation and destruction, famine and sword; who will comfort you?

20Your sons have fainted; they lie at the head of every street like an antelope in a net; they are full of the wrath of the Lord, the rebuke of your God.

21Therefore hear this, you who are afflicted, who are drunk, but not with wine:

22Thus says your Lord, the Lord, your God who pleads the cause of his people: "Behold, I have taken from your hand the cup of staggering; the bowl of my wrath you shall drink no more;

23and I will put it into the hand of your tormentors, who have said to you, 'Bow down, that we may pass over'; and you have made your back like the ground and like the street for them to pass over."
