    and there is no one who takes her by the hand among all the sons who she has brought up.

    who will grieve with you?—
    desolation and destruction,
    and famine and the sword.
    How can I comfort you?
  3. 20Your sons have fainted.
    They lie at the head of all the streets,

  4. 21Therefore now hear this, you afflicted,
    and drunken, but not with wine:
  5. 22Your Lord Yahweh,
    your God who pleads the cause of his people, says,
    “Behold, I have taken out of your hand the cup of staggering,
    even the bowl of the cup of my wrath.
    You will not drink it any more.
