Isaiah 51:15-17

International Children’s Bible

¹⁵ This is because I am the Lord your God.
    I stir the sea and make the waves roar.
    My name is the Lord of heaven’s armies.
¹⁶ I will give you the words I want you to say.
    I will cover you with my hands and protect you.
I made the heavens and the earth.
    And I say to Jerusalem, ‘You are my people.’”

¹⁷ The Lord was very angry with you.
    Your punishment was like wine in a cup.
The Lord made you drink that wine
    until you stumbled.
