12. For thus says the Lord: Your bruise is incurableand your wound is severe.
13. There is no one to plead your causethat you may be bound up.You have no healing medicines.
14. All your lovers have forgotten you;they do not seek you;for I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy,with the chastisement of a cruel one,because of the multitude of your iniquities, because your sins are numerous.
15. Why do you cry because of your affliction?Your sorrow is incurable.Because of the multitude of your iniquities, because your sins are numerous,I have done these things to you.
16. Therefore all who devour you will be devoured;and all your adversaries, every one of them, will go into captivity.And those who plunder you will become plunder,and all who prey upon you I will give for prey.
