Isaiah 51:13
Compare all
11 So athe ransomed of the Lord shall return,
And come to Zion with singing,
With everlasting joy on their heads.
They shall obtain joy and gladness;
Sorrow and sighing shall flee away. 
12 “I, even I, am He awho comforts you.
Who are you that you should be afraid
bOf a man who will die,
And of the son of a man who will be made clike grass? 
13 And ayou forget the Lord your Maker,
bWho stretched out the heavens
And laid the foundations of the earth;
You have feared continually every day
Because of the fury of the oppressor,
When he has prepared to destroy.
cAnd where is the fury of the oppressor? 
14 The captive exile hastens, that he may be loosed,
aThat he should not die in the pit,
And that his bread should not fail. 
15 But I am the Lord your God,
Who adivided the sea whose waves roared—
The Lord of hosts is His name. 
16 And aI have put My words in your mouth;
bI have covered you with the shadow of My hand,
cThat I may1 plant the heavens,
Lay the foundations of the earth,
And say to Zion, ‘You are My people.’ ” 

God’s Fury Removed

17 aAwake, awake!
Stand up, O Jerusalem,
You who bhave drunk at the hand of the Lord
The cup of His fury;
You have drunk the dregs of the cup of trembling,
And drained it out.

Isaiah 51:13

Of the oppressor, as if he, etc. - "The caph in keasher seems clearly to have changed its situation from the end of the preceding word to the beginning of this; or rather, to have been omitted by mistake there, because it was here. That it was there the Septuagint show by rendering hammetsikech , of him, that oppressed thee. And so they render this word in both its places in this verse. The Vulgate also has the pronoun in the first instance; furoris ejus qui te tribulabat ." Dr. Jubb. The correction seems well founded; I have not conformed the translation to it, because it makes little difference in the sense.
