15 We hoped for peace

but no good has come,

for a time of healing

but there is only terror.

15 We looked for peace, but no good came;

for a time of healing, but behold, terror.

15 We hoped for peace, but no peace came.

We hoped for a time of healing, but found only terror.’

15 “We looked for peace, but no good came;

And for a time of health, and there was trouble!

15 We hoped to have peace,

but nothing good has come.

We hoped for a time when he would heal us,

but only terror has come.

15 We looked for peace, but no good came; and for a time of healing, and, behold, dismay!

15 Peace is looked for, and there is no good; a time of healing, and behold, terror.

15 We hoped for peace, but nothing good has happened. 

We hoped for a time of healing, but there’s only terror. 

15 We hoped for peace, but there was nothing good;

for a time of healing, but there was only terror.

15 We look for peace, but find no good,

for a time of healing, but there is terror instead.

15 We hope for peace,

but there is no good,

for a time of healing,

but there is terror.

15 We hoped peace would come.

But nothing good has happened to us.

We hoped we would finally be healed.

But all we got was terror.

15 We waited for peace, but no good came;

For a time of healing, but behold, terror!
