17 Awake, awake!(A)

20 Your children have fainted;
    they lie at every street corner,(A)
    like antelope caught in a net.(B)
They are filled with the wrath(C) of the Lord,
    with the rebuke(D) of your God.

21 Therefore hear this, you afflicted(E) one,
    made drunk,(F) but not with wine.
22 This is what your Sovereign Lord says,

“See, I have taken out of your hand
    the cup(H) that made you stagger;
from that cup, the goblet of my wrath,
    you will never drink again.
