10 “Then fear not, O Jacob my servant, declares the Lord,nor be dismayed, O Israel;for behold, I will save you from far away, and your offspring from the land of their captivity. Jacob shall return and have quiet and ease,and none shall make him afraid.
11 For I am with you to save you,declares the Lord; I will make a full end of all the nationsamong whom I scattered you,but of you I will not make a full end. I will discipline you in just measure,and I will by no means leave you unpunished.
12 “For thus says the Lord: Your hurt is incurable, and your wound is grievous.
13 There is none to uphold your cause,no medicine for your wound, no healing for you.
14 All your lovers have forgotten you;they care nothing for you;for I have dealt you the blow of an enemy,the punishment of a merciless foe,because your guilt is great, because your sins are flagrant.
15 Why do you cry out over your hurt? Your pain is incurable.Because your guilt is great, because your sins are flagrant,I have done these things to you.
16 Therefore all who devour you shall be devoured,and all your foes, every one of them, shall go into captivity; those who plunder you shall be plundered, and all who prey on you I will make a prey.
