Isaiah 51:17-20

^(A)Rouse yourself! Rouse yourself! Arise, O Jerusalem,
You who have ^(B)drunk from the Lord’s hand the cup of His anger;
The ^(a)chalice of reeling you have ^(b)drained to the dregs.

There is ^(C)none to guide her among all the sons she has borne,
Nor is there one to take her by the hand among all the sons she has reared.

^{Tools

These two things have befallen you;
Who will mourn for you?
The ^(D)devastation and destruction, famine and sword;
How shall I comfort you?

^{Tools
20}

Your sons have fainted,
They ^(E)lie helpless at the head of every street,
Like an ^(F)antelope in a net,
Full of the wrath of the Lord,
The ^(G)rebuke of your God.
