Isaiah 51:16-18

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁶I have put my words in your mouth,^(A)
and covered you in the shadow of my hand,^(B)
in order to plant^[a] the heavens,
to found the earth,
and to say to Zion, “You are my people.”

¹⁷Wake yourself, wake yourself up!
Stand up, Jerusalem,
you who have drunk the cup of his fury^(C)
from the Lord’s hand;
you who have drunk the goblet to the dregs—
the cup that causes people to stagger.
¹⁸There is no one to guide her
among all the children she has raised;
there is no one to take hold of her hand
among all the offspring she has brought up.
