20 Your children lie helpless
    at every street corner
    like antelopes in a net.
They are filled with the wrath of the Lord,
    the rebuke of your God.

21 But now, hear this, afflicted one,
    drunk, but not with wine,(A)

    your God, who defends his people:
See, I am taking from your hand
    the cup of staggering;
The bowl of my wrath
    you shall no longer drink.

20 Your children have fainted;
    they lie at every street corner,(A)
    like antelope caught in a net.(B)

    made drunk,(F) but not with wine.
22 This is what your Sovereign Lord says,
    your God, who defends(G) his people:

    the cup(H) that made you stagger;
from that cup, the goblet of my wrath,
    you will never drink again.
