International Standard Version
Isaiah 51:21-23
International Standard Version
21 Now listen to this, you afflicted one,
made drunk, but not with wine:
22 This is what your Lord, the Lord,[a] says,
your[b] God, who defends his people’s cause:
“See, I have taken from your hand the cup that made you stagger.[c]
And you will never again drink to the dregs the cup that is my anger.
23 But I will put it into the hands of those who tormented and oppressed you,[d]
those who said to you,
‘Lie down,[e] so we can step over you,’
so that you had to make your back like the ground,
and like a street for them to walk over.”

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)
