Why ·should you continue to be [or do you insist on being] ·punished [battered; struck down]?
    Why do you continue to ·turn against him [rebel]?
Your whole head is ·hurt [bruised; wounded],
    and your whole heart is ·sick [faint; weak].
There is no ·healthy spot [soundness]
    from the ·bottom [sole] of your foot to the top of your head;
    you are covered with ·wounds [bruises], ·hurts [sores; welts], and ·open sores [raw/infected wounds]
that are not ·cleaned [L pressed out] and ·covered [bandaged],
    ·and no medicine takes away the pain [L not soothed/softened with oil].

Your land is ·ruined [desolate];
    your cities have been burned with fire.
·While you watch [Right in front of you],
    ·your enemies [L foreigners; strangers] ·are stealing everything from [destroy; devour] your ·land [fields; crops];
    it is ruined like a country ·destroyed [overthrown] by ·enemies [L foreigners; strangers].
