^{17 Ref} Awake! awake! up! O Jerusalem, you who have taken from the Lord's hand the cup of his wrath; tasting in full measure the wine which overcomes.

^{18 Ref} She has no one among all her children to be her guide; not one of the sons she has taken care of takes her by the hand.

^{19 Ref} These two things have come on you; who will be weeping for you? wasting and destruction; death from need of food, and from the sword; how may you be comforted?

^{20 Ref} Your sons are overcome, like a roe in a net; they are full of the wrath of the Lord, the punishment of your God.

^{21 Ref} So now give ear to this, you who are troubled and overcome, but not with wine:

^{22 Ref} This is the word of the Lord your master, even your God who takes up the cause of his people: See, I have taken out of your hand the cup which overcomes, even the cup of my wrath; it will not again be given to you:

^{23 Ref} And I will put it into the hand of your cruel masters, and of those whose yoke has been hard on you; who have said to your soul, Down on your face! so that we may go over you: and you have given your backs like the earth, even like the street, for them to go over.
