Isaiah 51:18-20
Lexham English Bible
18 There is no one who guides her among[a] all the children she has borne,
and there is no one who grasps her by the hand among[b] all the children she raised.
19 Two things here have happened to you—who will show sympathy[c] for you?—
devastation and destruction, famine and sword—who will comfort you?
20 Your children have fainted;
they lie at the head of all the streets, like an antelope in[d] a snare,
those who are full of the wrath of Yahweh,
the rebuke of your God.
