17Awake, awake!

Rise up, Jerusalem,

you who have drunk from the hand of the Lord

the cup of his wrath,

you who have drained to its dregs

the goblet that makes people stagger.

17¶Pull yourself up! Pull yourself up! Arise, Jerusalem!

You who have drunk from the Lord’s hand the cup of His anger;

The 51:17 Lit bowl of the cup of reelingchalice of staggering you have drunk to the dregs.

17Rouse yourself! Rouse yourself! Arise, O Jerusalem,

You who have drunk from the Lord’s hand the cup of His anger;

The chalice of reeling you have drained to the dregs.

17¶Wake yourself up! Wake yourself up! Stand up, O Jerusalem,

You who have drunk at the hand of the Lord the cup of His wrath,

You who have drunk the cup of staggering and intoxication to the dregs [leaving only sediment].

17Awake, awake!

Rise up, O Jerusalem,

you who have drunk from the hand of the Lord

the cup of His fury;

you who have drained the goblet to the dregs —

the cup that makes men stagger.

17Wake up, Jerusalem!

Wake up! Get up!

The Lord has handed you the cup of his great anger.

And you have drunk from it.

That cup makes people unsteady on their feet.

And you have drunk from it to the very last drop.
