Isaiah:51:17-23

*
Awake ,
awake ,
stand up ,
O Jerusalem ,
which hast drunk at the hand of the LORD the cup of his fury ;
thou hast drunken the dregs of the cup of trembling tar #
elah #,
and wrung them out .
*
There 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 .
*
These two things are come unto thee ;
who shall be sorry for thee ?
desolation ,
and destruction ,
and the famine ra #
ab #,
and the sword :
by whom shall I comfort thee ?
*
Thy 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 the LORD ,
the rebuke of thy God .
*
Therefore hear now this ,
thou afflicted ,
and drunken ,
but not with wine :
*
Thus saith thy Lord the LORD ,
and thy God that pleadeth the cause of his people ,
Behold ,
I have taken out of thine hand the cup of trembling tar #
elah #,
even the dregs of the cup of my fury ;
thou shalt no more drink it again :
*
But 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 .
