11 I am with you, and I will rescue you,” declares the Lord.“I will completely destroy all the nations where I scattered you,but I will not completely destroy you.I will correct you with justice.I won’t let you go entirely unpunished.
12 “This is what the Lord says:Your wound is incurable.Your injury is beyond healing.
13 No one argues that you should be healed.No medicine will heal you.
14 All your lovers have forgotten you,and they don’t want you anymore.I’ve punished you as an enemy would.I’ve corrected you as a cruel person would.You are very wicked, and you have many sins.
15 Why do you cry about your wound, your injury that can’t be cured?I’ve done this to you.You are very wicked, and you have many sins.
16 That is why everyone who devours you will be devoured,and all your enemies will be taken away as captives.Those who looted you will be looted.Those who stole from you in war will have things stolen from them.
17 I’ll restore your health and heal your wounds,” declares the Lord.“People call you an outcast:Zion, no one cares for you.
