Isaiah 51:21-22

51:21 So listen to this, oppressed one,

who is drunk, but not from wine!

51:22 This is what your sovereign master, the Lord your God, says:

“Look, I have removed from your hand

the cup of intoxicating wine,

the goblet full of my anger.

You will no longer have to drink it.


tn The Hebrew term translated “sovereign master” here is אֲדֹנָי (’adonay).

tn Heb “the cup of [= that causes] staggering” (so ASV, NAB, NRSV); NASB “the cup of reeling.”

tn Heb “the goblet of the cup of my anger.”
