13 What can I say on your behalf?

What can I compare you to, Daughter Jerusalem?

What can I liken you to,

so that I may console you, Virgin Daughter Zion?

For your ruin is as vast as the sea.

Who can heal you?a

14 Your prophets saw visions for you

that were empty and deceptive;A,b

they did not reveal your iniquity

and so restore your fortunes.c

They saw pronouncements for you

that were empty and misleading.
