Jeremiah 30:12-17
New American Standard Bible
12 “For this is what the Lord says:
‘Your broken limb is irreparable,
And your (A)wound is incurable.
13 There is no one to plead your cause;
No healing for your sore,
(B)No recovery for you.
14 All your (C)lovers have forgotten you,
They do not seek you;
For I have (D)wounded you with the wound of an enemy,
With the (E)punishment of a (F)cruel one,
Because your (G)wrongdoing is great,
And your (H)sins are numerous.
15 Why do you cry out over your injury?
Your pain is incurable.
Because your wrongdoing is great
And your sins are numerous,
I have done these things to you.
16 Therefore all who (I)devour you will be devoured;
And all your adversaries, every one of them, (J)will go into captivity;
And those who plunder you will become plunder,
And all who plunder you I will turn into plunder.
17 For I will [a]restore you to [b](K)health
And I will heal you of your wounds,’ declares the Lord,
‘Because they have called you an (L)outcast, saying:
“It is Zion; no one [c]cares for her.”’

Jeremiah 30:12-17
American Standard Version
12 For thus saith Jehovah, Thy hurt is incurable, and thy wound grievous. 13 There is none to plead [a]thy cause, [b]that thou mayest be bound up: thou hast no healing medicines. 14 All thy lovers have forgotten thee; they seek thee not: for I have wounded thee with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the [c]greatness of thine iniquity, because thy sins were increased. 15 Why criest thou [d]for thy hurt? thy pain is incurable: for the [e]greatness of thine iniquity, because thy sins were increased, I have done these things unto thee. 16 Therefore all they that devour thee shall be devoured; and all thine adversaries, every one of them, shall go into captivity; and they that despoil thee shall be a spoil, and all that prey upon thee will I give for a prey. 17 For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith Jehovah; because they have called thee an outcast, saying, It is Zion, whom no man [f]seeketh after.

New International Version
12 “This is what the Lord says:
“‘Your wound(A) is incurable,
your injury beyond healing.(B)
13 There is no one to plead your cause,(C)
no remedy for your sore,
no healing(D) for you.
14 All your allies(E) have forgotten you;
they care nothing for you.
I have struck you as an enemy(F) would
and punished you as would the cruel,(G)
because your guilt is so great
and your sins(H) so many.
15 Why do you cry out over your wound,
your pain that has no cure?(I)
Because of your great guilt and many sins
I have done these things to you.(J)
16 “‘But all who devour(K) you will be devoured;
all your enemies will go into exile.(L)
Those who plunder(M) you will be plundered;
all who make spoil of you I will despoil.
17 But I will restore you to health
and heal(N) your wounds,’
declares the Lord,
‘because you are called an outcast,(O)
Zion for whom no one cares.’(P)
