10. ‘Therefore do not fear, O My servant Jacob,’ says the Lord,‘Nor be dismayed, O Israel;For behold, I will save you from afar,And your seed from the land of their captivity.Jacob shall return, have rest and be quiet,And no one shall make him afraid.
11. For I am with you,’ says the Lord, ‘to save you;Though I make a full end of all nations where I have scattered you,Yet I will not make a complete end of you.But I will correct you in justice,And will not let you go altogether unpunished.’
12. “For thus says the Lord:‘Your affliction is incurable,Your wound is severe.
13. There is no one to plead your cause,That 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,For the multitude of your iniquities,Because your sins have increased.
