15 I am the Lord your God who stirs up the seaand makes its waves roar.My name is the Lord of Armies.
16 I put my words in your mouthand sheltered you in the palm of my hand.I stretched out the heavens,laid the foundations of the earth,and said to Zion, “You are my people.”
17 Wake up! Wake up!Stand up, Jerusalem!You drank from the cup in the Lord’s hand.That cup was filled with his anger.You drank from the bowl, the cup that makes people stagger,and you drained it!
18 From all the children she gave birth to,there was no one to guide her.From all the children she raised,there was no one to take her by the hand.
19 Twice as many disasters have happened to you.Who will feel sorry for you?Violence, destruction, famine, and war have happened to you.Who will comfort you?
20 Your children have fainted.They lie sleeping at every street corner.They are like an antelope caught in a net.They experience the anger of the Lord,the fury of your God.
21 Listen to this, you humble peoplewho are drunk but not from wine.
