New King James Version
12 “For thus says the Lord:
(A)‘Your affliction is incurable,
Your wound is severe.
13 There is no one to plead your cause,
That you may be bound up;
(B)You have no healing medicines.
14 (C)All your lovers have forgotten you;
They do not seek you;
For I have wounded you with the wound (D)of an enemy,
With the chastisement (E)of a cruel one,
For the multitude of your iniquities,
(F)Because your sins have increased.
15 Why (G)do you cry about your affliction?
Your sorrow is incurable.
Because of the multitude of your iniquities,
Because your sins have increased,
I have done these things to you.
16 ‘Therefore all those who devour you (H)shall be devoured;
And all your adversaries, every one of them, shall go into (I)captivity;
Those who plunder you shall become (J)plunder,
And all who prey upon you I will make a (K)prey.

And heal you of your wounds,’ says the Lord,
‘Because they called you an outcast saying:
“This is Zion;
No one seeks her.” ’

Isaiah 1:5-6
New King James Version
5 (A)Why should you be stricken again?
You will revolt more and more.
The whole head is sick,
And the whole heart faints.
6 From the sole of the foot even to the head,
There is no soundness in it,
But wounds and bruises and putrefying sores;
They have not been closed or bound up,
Or soothed with ointment.
