Isaiah 51:17-19
International Standard Version
17 “Awake, Awake!
Stand up, Jerusalem,
you who have drunk from the Lord’s hand
from the cup that is[a] his anger.
You have drunk to the dregs
the cup that makes you stagger,[b]
and have drained it.
18 There is no one to guide you[c]
out of all the children she bore,
no one to take her by the hand
out of all the children she brought up.
19 “These twin things have come upon you
(who can feel sorry for you?):
ruin and destruction,
famine and the sword—
who can console you?
