Isaiah 51:20
18 Among all the sons she bore, there is no one to guide her; among all the sons she brought up, there is no one to take her hand.
19 These pairs have befallen you: devastation and destruction, famine and sword. Who will grieve for you? Who can comfort you?
Your sons have fainted; they lie at the head of every street, like an antelope in a net. They are full of the wrath of the LORD, the rebuke of your God.
21 Therefore now hear this, you afflicted one, drunken, but not with wine.
22 Thus says your Lord, the LORD, even your God, who defends His people: “See, I have removed from your hand the cup of staggering. From that goblet, the cup of My fury, you will never drink again.
Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
