Isaiah 51:21 - Compare All Versions

Therefore hear this, you afflicted one, made drunk, but not with wine.

Therefore hear this, you who are afflicted, who are drunk, but not with wine

But now listen to this, you afflicted ones who sit in a drunken stupor, though not from drinking wine.

So listen to this, suffering and drunken one — but not with wine.

Therefore hear now this, thou afflicted, and drunken, but not with wine

Therefore please hear this, you afflicted, And drunk but not with wine.

Therefore listen, please, you with your splitting headaches, You who are nursing the hangovers that didn’t come from drinking wine. Your Master, your GOD, has something to say, your God has taken up his people’s case: “Look, I’ve taken back the drink that sent you reeling. No more drinking from that jug of my anger! I’ve passed it over to your abusers to drink, those who ordered you, ‘Down on the ground so we can walk all over you!’ And you had to do it. Flat on the ground, you were the dirt under their feet.”

¶Therefore, listen to this, you afflicted, Who are drunk, but not with wine

¶Therefore, now hear this, you who are afflicted, Who are drunk, but not with wine [but overwhelmed by the wrath of God].

So listen to this, oppressed one, who is drunk, but not from wine!
