18 (A)If I go out into the field,
    behold, those pierced by the sword!
(B)And if I enter the city,
    behold, the diseases of famine!
(C)For both prophet and priest ply their trade through the land
    and have no knowledge.’”

19 (D)Have you utterly rejected Judah?
    Does your soul loathe Zion?
Why have you struck us down
    (E)so that there is no healing for us?
(F)We looked for peace, but no good came;
    (G)for a time of healing, but behold, terror.
20 (H)We acknowledge our wickedness, O Lord,
    and the iniquity of our fathers,
    (I)for we have sinned against you.
