The Prophet’s Call for Help and Justice

14 Heal me, Lord, and I’ll be healed;
    deliver me, and I’ll be delivered,
        because you are my praise.
15 Look, they’re saying to me,
    “Where is the message from the Lord?
        Let it come about!”
16 I haven’t run away from being your shepherd,[a]
    and I haven’t longed for the day of sickness.[b]
You know what comes out from my lips,
    it’s open before you.[c]
