Context of Jeremiah 30:13

11For I am with you,’ says the Lord, ‘to save you; For I will destroy completely all the nations where I have scattered you, But I will not destroy you completely. But I will judge and discipline you fairly And will by no means regard you as guiltless and leave you unpunished.’ 12“For thus says the Lord, ‘Your wound is incurable And your injury is beyond healing. There is no one to plead your cause; No [device to close and allow the] healing of your wound, No recovery for you. 14All your lovers (allies) have forgotten you; They do not seek and long for you. For I have injured you with the wound of an enemy, With the punishment of a cruel and merciless foe, Because your guilt is great And your sins are glaring and innumerable. 15Why do you cry out over your injury [since it is the natural result of your sin]? Your pain is incurable (deadly). Because your guilt is great And your sins are glaring and innumerable, I have done these things to you.
