Isaiah 51:17-23

17Awake, awake! Rise up, Jerusalem, you who have drunk from the hand of the Lord the cup of his wrath, you who have drained to its dregs the goblet that makes people stagger.

18Among all the children she bore there was none to guide her; among all the children she reared there was none to take her by the hand.

19These double calamities have come upon you— who can comfort you?— ruin and destruction, famine and sword— who can console you?

20Your children have fainted; they lie at every street corner, like antelope caught in a net. They are filled with the wrath of the Lord, with the rebuke of your God.

21Therefore hear this, you afflicted one, made drunk, but not with wine.

22This is what your Sovereign Lord says, your God, who defends his people: “See, I have taken out of your hand the cup that made you stagger; from that cup, the goblet of my wrath, you will never drink again.

23I will put it into the hands of your tormentors, who said to you, ‘Fall prostrate that we may walk on you.’ And you made your back like the ground, like a street to be walked on.”
