21Therefore, please hear this, afflicted one, drunk, but not from wine:

22Thus says your Lord, Yahweh, and your God, who pleads the cause of his people: Behold, I have taken from your hand the cup of staggering, the bowl of the cup of my wrath; you shall never again drink it.

23And I will put it into the hand of those who afflict you, who said to you, ‘Bow down, so that we may pass over’; and you made your back like the ground, and like the street for those passing by.
