Isaiah 51:21-23

Context

51:21 So listen to this, oppressed one,

who is drunk, but not from wine!

51:22 This is what your sovereign master, 1  the Lord your God, says:

“Look, I have removed from your hand

the cup of intoxicating wine, 2 

the goblet full of my anger. 3 

You will no longer have to drink it.

51:23 I will put it into the hand of your tormentors 4 

who said to you, ‘Lie down, so we can walk over you.’

You made your back like the ground,

and like the street for those who walked over you.”

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

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

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

4 tn That is, to make them drink it.
