Isaiah 51:22-23

International Children’s Bible

²² Your God will fight for his people.
    This is what the Lord your God says:
“The punishment I gave you is like a cup of wine.
    You drank it and could not walk straight.
I am taking that cup of my anger away from you.
    You will never be punished by my anger again.
²³ I will now give that cup of punishment to those who gave you pain.
They told you,
    ‘Bow down so we can walk over you.’
They made your back like dirt for them to walk on.
    You were like a street for them to travel on.”
