Jeremiah 30:12-17

NSB(i) 12 This is what Jehovah says: »Your wound is incurable. Your injury is beyond healing. 13 »No one argues that you should be healed. But no medicine will heal you. 14 »All your lovers have forgotten you, and they do not want you anymore. I have punished you as an enemy would. I have 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 cannot be cured? I have 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 will restore your health and heal your wounds,« proclaims Jehovah. »People call you an outcast: ‘Zion, no one cares for you.’«
