Isaiah 51:17

Read in context

Isaiah 51:15–19 · Berean Standard Bible

15 For I am the LORD your God who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar— the LORD of Hosts is His name.

16 I have put My words in your mouth, and covered you with the shadow of My hand, to establish the heavens, to found the earth, and to say to Zion, ‘You are My people.’”

17 Awake, awake! Rise up, O Jerusalem, you who have drunk from the hand of the LORD the cup of His fury; you who have drained the goblet to the dregs— the cup that makes men stagger.

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?
