The Cup of the Lord’s Wrath
Isaiah 51:21-23
New International Version
21 Therefore hear this, you afflicted(A) one,
made drunk,(B) but not with wine.
22 This is what your Sovereign Lord says,
your God, who defends(C) his people:
“See, I have taken out of your hand
the cup(D) that made you stagger;
from that cup, the goblet of my wrath,
you will never drink again.
23 I will put it into the hands of your tormentors,(E)
who said to you,
‘Fall prostrate(F) that we may walk(G) on you.’
And you made your back like the ground,
like a street to be walked on.”(H)
