⁸ In the hand of the Lord is a cup
    full of foaming wine mixed^(A) with spices;
he pours it out, and all the wicked of the earth
    drink it down to its very dregs.^(B)

⁹ As for me, I will declare^(C) this forever;
    I will sing^(D) praise to the God of Jacob,^(E)

⁷ Then the hordes of all the nations^(A) that fight against Ariel,^(B)
    that attack her and her fortress and besiege her,
will be as it is with a dream,^(C)
    with a vision in the night—
⁸ as when a hungry person dreams of eating,
    but awakens^(D) hungry still;
as when a thirsty person dreams of drinking,
    but awakens faint and thirsty still.^(E)
So will it be with the hordes of all the nations
    that fight against Mount Zion.^(F)

“Yes, captives^(A) will be taken from warriors,^(B)
    and plunder retrieved from the fierce;^(C)
I will contend with those who contend with you,^(D)
    and your children I will save.^(E)
26 I will make your oppressors^(F) eat^(G) their own flesh;
    they will be drunk on their own blood,^(H) as with wine.
Then all mankind will know^(I)
    that I, the Lord, am your Savior,^(J)
    your Redeemer,^(K) the Mighty One of Jacob.^(L)”

¹⁰ But the Lord is the true God;
    he is the living God,^(A) the eternal King.^(B)
When he is angry,^(C) the earth trembles;^(D)
    the nations cannot endure his wrath.^(E)

⁷ How awful that day^(A) will be!
    No other will be like it.
It will be a time of trouble^(B) for Jacob,
    but he will be saved^(C) out of it.
