Your injury is incurable;
your wound most severe.^(A)

¹⁴ All your lovers have forgotten you;^(A)
they no longer look for you,
for I have struck you as an enemy would,
with the discipline^(B) of someone cruel,^(C)
because of your enormous guilt
and your innumerable sins.

¹⁷ But I will bring you health^(A)
and will heal you of your wounds—
this is the Lord’s declaration—
for they call you Outcast,
Zion whom no one cares about.
