Isaiah 51:18-20
Evangelical Heritage Version
Isaiah 51:18-20
Evangelical Heritage Version
18 There is no one to guide her from among all the sons she bore.
There is no one to take her hand from among all the sons she raised.
19 Those two things are happening to you.[a]
Who will grieve for you?
Devastation and destruction and famine and sword!
Who will comfort you?[b]
20 Your children faint and collapse at the corner of every street,
like an antelope in a net.
They are full of the wrath of the Lord,
full of the rebuke of your God.
