12“For thus says the Lord:

xYour hurt is incurable,

yand your wound is grievous.

13There is none to uphold your cause,

no medicine for your wound,

zno healing for you.

14aAll your lovers have forgotten you;

they care nothing for you;

for I have dealt you the blow of ban enemy,

the punishment cof a merciless foe,

because your guilt is great,

dbecause your sins are flagrant.

15xWhy do you cry out over your hurt?

xYour pain is incurable.

Because your guilt is great,

dbecause your sins are flagrant,

I have done these things to you.

16eTherefore all who devour you shall be devoured,

and fall your foes, every one of them, shall go into captivity;

gthose who plunder you shall be plundered,

hand all who prey on you I will make a prey.

17iFor I will restore jhealth to you,

and kyour wounds I will heal,

declares the Lord,

because lthey have called you an outcast:

l‘It is Zion, for whom no one cares!’

NIVNew International Version (2011)

“This is what the Lord says:

“ ‘Your wound is incurable,

your injury beyond healing.

There is no one to plead your cause,

no remedy for your sore,

no healing for you.

All your allies have forgotten you;

they care nothing for you.

I have struck you as an enemy would

and punished you as would the cruel,

because your guilt is so great

and your sins so many.

Why do you cry out over your wound,

your pain that has no cure?

Because of your great guilt and many sins

I have done these things to you.

“ ‘But all who devour you will be devoured;

all your enemies will go into exile.

Those who plunder you will be plundered;

all who make spoil of you I will despoil.

But I will restore you to health

and heal your wounds,’

declares the Lord,

‘because you are called an outcast,

Zion for whom no one cares.’

CSBChristian Standard Bible

For this is what the Lord says:

Your injury is incurable;

your wound most severe.

You have no defender for your case.

There is no remedy for your sores,

and no healing for you.

All your lovers have forgotten you;

they no longer look for you,

for I have struck you as an enemy would,

with the discipline of someone cruel,

because of your enormous guilt

and your innumerable sins.

Why do you cry out about your injury?

Your pain has no cure!

I have done these things to you

because of your enormous guilt

and your innumerable sins.

Nevertheless, all who devoured you will be devoured,

and all your adversaries—all of them—

will go off into exile.

Those who plunder you will be plundered,

and all who raid you will be raided.

But I will bring you health

and will heal you of your wounds—

this is the Lord’s declaration—

for they call you Outcast,

Zion whom no one cares about.

NLTNew Living Translation

This is what the Lord says:

“Your injury is incurable—

a terrible wound.

There is no one to help you

or to bind up your injury.

No medicine can heal you.

All your lovers—your allies—have left you

and do not care about you anymore.

I have wounded you cruelly,

as though I were your enemy.

For your sins are many,

and your guilt is great.

Why do you protest your punishment—

this wound that has no cure?

I have had to punish you

because your sins are many

and your guilt is great.

“But all who devour you will be devoured,

and all your enemies will be sent into exile.

All who plunder you will be plundered,

and all who attack you will be attacked.

I will give you back your health

and heal your wounds,” says the Lord.

“For you are called an outcast—

‘Jerusalem for whom no one cares.’ ”

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

For thus says Yahweh,

‘Your injury is incurable,

your wound is overcome by sickness.

There is no one who pleads your cause,

for your boil there is no healing for you.

All your lovers have forgotten you,

they do not care for you.

I have struck you with the blow of an enemy,

the punishment of the cruel,

because of the greatness of your guilt,

your sins are numerous.

Why do you cry because of your wound?

Your pain is incurable.

Because of the greatness of your guilt—your sins are vast—

I have done these things to you.

Therefore all those who devour you will be devoured,

and all your foes, all of them will go into captivity,

and those who plunder you will be as plunder,

and all those who plunder you I will make as plunder.

For I will present healing to you,

and I will heal you of your wounds,’ declares Yahweh.

‘Because they have called you an outcast, saying,

“It is Zion, there is no one who cares for her.” ’

KJV 1900King James Version

For thus saith the Lord,

Thy bruise is incurable,

And thy wound is grievous.

There is none to plead thy cause, that thou mayest be bound up:

Thou hast no healing medicines.

All thy lovers have forgotten thee;

They seek thee not;

For I have wounded thee with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one,

For the multitude of thine iniquity;

Because thy sins were increased.

Why criest thou for thine affliction?

Thy sorrow is incurable for the multitude of thine iniquity:

Because thy sins were increased, I have done these things unto thee.

Therefore all they that devour thee shall be devoured;

And all thine adversaries, every one of them, shall go into captivity;

And they that spoil thee shall be a spoil,

And all that prey upon thee will I give for a prey.

For I will restore health unto thee,

And I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the Lord;

Because they called thee an Outcast, saying,

This is Zion, whom no man seeketh after.
