Revised Literal Translation
Isaiah 51:17-23
17Awake, awake, stand up, O Jerusalem, which hast drunk at the hand of Yhwh the cup of his fury; thou hast drunken the dregs of the cup of trembling, and wrung them out. 18There is none to guide her among all the sons whom she hath brought forth; neither is there any that taketh her by the hand of all the sons that she hath brought up. 19These two things are come unto thee; who shall be sorry for thee? desolation, and destruction, and the famine, and the sword: by whom shall I comfort thee?12 20Thy sons have fainted, they lie at the head of all the streets, as a wild bull in a net: they are full of the fury of Yhwh, the rebuke of thy God.
21Therefore hear now this, thou afflicted, and drunken, but not with wine: 22Thus saith thy Lord Yhwh, and thy God that pleadeth the cause of his people, Behold, I have taken out of thine hand the cup of trembling, even the dregs of the cup of my fury; thou shalt no more drink it again: 23But I will put it into the hand of them that afflict thee; which have said to thy soul, Bow down, that we may go over: and thou hast laid thy body as the ground, and as the street, to them that went over.
