17 Awake, awake, stand up, Jerusalem, that hast drunk the cup of wrath from the hand of the Lord; for thou didst drink, and didst empty out the cup of falling, the goblet of (his)

18 And there was none that comforted thee from among all thy children that thou broughtest forth; and there was none. that took hold of thy hand from among all thy sons whom thou didst raise up.

19 These two things are against thee; who shall grieve with thee? ruin and destruction, famine and sword: who shall comfort thee?

20 Thy sons are they that are helpless, that lie down at the head of every passage way like sodden herbs; that are full of the wrath of the Lord, that are undone through the Lord God.

21 Therefore hear, thou that art humbled, and drunken, not with wine:

22 Thus saith the Lord, the God that judgeth his people, Behold, I have taken out of thine hand the cup of falling, the goblet of (my) wrath, and thou shalt no more drink it again:

23 And I will put it ’the hands of them that did thee wrong, and them that humbled thee; which said to thy soul Bow down, that we may pass by; and thou laidest thy back even with the ground, without, for them that went by.

LII. 1 Awake, awake, Zion; put on thy strength, Zion, and put on ’glory, Jerusalem, holy city; no longer shall there pass through thee again (one) uncircumcised and unclean.
