Eternal One: Look! I have taken away the cup that left you reeling—the cup of My anger—
        and sobered you up; I will never make you drink it again.
23     And I will give that drink to those who abused and oppressed you—
        who ordered you, “Get down so we can walk all over you.”
    And your backs became the ground they walked on, the streets they passed by.
