← Isaiah 51:19	Isaiah 51:20 (KJV)	Isaiah 51:21 →
These two [things] are come unto thee; who shall be sorry for thee? desolation, and destruction, and the famine, and the sword: by whom shall I comfort thee?	Thy sons have fainted, they lie at the head of all the streets, as a wild bull in a net: they are full of the fury of the LORD, the rebuke of thy God.	Therefore hear now this, thou afflicted, and drunken, but not with wine:
