Isaiah 51:17-19

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁷ Wake up! Wake up!
Stand up, Jerusalem!
You drank from the cup in the Lord’s hand.
That cup was filled with his anger.
You drank from the bowl, the cup that makes people stagger,
and you drained it!
¹⁸ From all the children she gave birth to,
there was no one to guide her.
From all the children she raised,
there was no one to take her by the hand.
¹⁹ Twice as many disasters have happened to you.
Who will feel sorry for you?
Violence, destruction, famine, and war have happened to you.
Who will comfort you?
