Context Reading
18There is no one to guide her among all the sons to whom she has given birth;and there is no one who takes her by the hand among all the sons whom she has brought up. 19These two things have happened to you — who will grieve with you? — desolation and destruction,and famine and the sword.How can I comfort you? 20Your sons have fainted.They lie at the head of all the streets,like an antelope in a net.They are full of Yahweh’s wrath,the rebuke of your God. 21Therefore now hear this, you afflicted,and drunken, but not with wine: 22Your Lord Yahweh,your God who pleads the cause of his people, says,“Behold, I have taken out of your hand the cup of staggering,even the bowl of the cup of my wrath.You will not drink it any more.
