15 Why cry about your fracture?
Your pain has no cure.
Because your iniquity is vast,
your sins innumerable,
I did these things to you.
16 Yet all who devour you will be devoured,
and all your foes—all of them—
will go into captivity.
Those plundering you will be plundered,
and all preying on you I give as prey.
17 For I will restore health to you
and will heal you of your wounds.”
It is a declaration of Adonai.
“For they called you an outcast:
‘Zion—no one cares about her.’”
