14 But Zion said, (A)“The Lord has forsaken me;
    my Lord has forgotten me.”

15 (B)“Can a woman forget her nursing child,
    that she should have no compassion on the son of her womb?
Even these may forget,
    yet I will not forget you.
16 Behold, (C)I have engraved you on the palms of my hands;
    your walls are continually before me.
17 Your builders make haste;[a]
    (D)your destroyers and those who laid you waste go out from you.
