Isaiah 51:19-23

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.
