¹³ How shall I admonish you?
What ^(A)shall I compare to you,
Daughter of Jerusalem?
What shall I liken to you as I comfort you,
^(B)Virgin daughter of Zion?
For your collapse is as vast as the sea;
Who can ^(C)heal you?
¹⁴ Your ^(D)prophets have seen for you
Worthless and deceptive visions;
And they have not ^(E)exposed your wrongdoing
So as to restore you from captivity,
But they have ^(F)seen for you worthless and misleading pronouncements.
¹⁵ All who pass along the way
^(G)Clap their hands in ridicule at you;
They ^(H)[a]hiss and shake their heads
At the daughter of Jerusalem:
“Is this the city of which they said,
‘^(I)Perfect in beauty,
^(J)A joy to all the earth’?”
