13 Lord, the hope of Israel,
        all who forsake you will suffer disgrace;
    those who turn away from you[a] in the land
        will be written off,[b]
    for they have abandoned the Lord,
        the fountain of living water.

14 Heal me, Lord, and I’ll be healed.
    Save me and I’ll be saved,

15 See how they harass me:
    “Where’s the Lord’s word?
        Let it come now!”
