12 This is what the Lord said:

“You people have a wound that cannot be cured;
    your injury will not heal.
13 There is no one to argue your case
    and no cure for your sores.
    So you will not be healed.
14 All those nations who were your friends have forgotten you.

    I punished you very hard,
because your guilt was so great
    and your sins were so many.
