22 The Lord your God defends his people.

This is what your master says:

I’m taking from your hand the cup that makes people stagger,
the bowl, the cup of my fury.
You will never drink from it again.
23 I will put it in the hands of those who made you suffer.

So you made your back like the ground
and like a street for them to cross.

    you will never drink again.
23 I will put it into the hands of your tormentors,(C)
    who said to you,
    ‘Fall prostrate(D) that we may walk(E) on you.’
And you made your back like the ground,
    like a street to be walked on.”(F)
