17:14 Lord, grant me relief from my suffering
so that I may have some relief.
Rescue me from those who persecute me
so that I may be rescued.
51:9 Foreigners living there will say,
‘We tried to heal her, but she could not be healed.
Let’s leave Babylonia
For judgment on her will be vast in its proportions.
It will be like it is piled up to heaven, stacked up into the clouds.’
3:22 Come back to me, you wayward people.
I want to cure your waywardness.
Say,
because you are the Lord our God.
6:14 They offer only superficial help
for the harm my people have suffered.
They say, ‘Everything will be all right!’
But everything is not all right!
8:11 They offer only superficial help
for the hurt my dear people
They say, “Everything will be all right!”
But everything is not all right!
51:8 But suddenly Babylonia will fall and be destroyed.
Cry out in mourning over it!
Get medicine for her wounds!
Perhaps she can be healed!
8:22 There is still medicinal ointment
There is still a physician there!
Why then have my dear people
not been restored to health?
15:18 Why must I continually suffer such painful anguish?
Why must I endure the sting of their insults like an incurable wound?
Will you let me down when I need you
like a brook one goes to for water, but that cannot be relied on?”
30:17 Yes,
I will heal your wounds.
I, the Lord, affirm it!
For you have been called an outcast,
Zion, whom no one cares for.”
