17 Because of his sinful greed I was angry,(A)
so I struck him; I was angry and hid;
but he went on turning back to the desires of his heart.
18 I have seen his ways, but I will heal him;
I will lead him and restore comfort
to him and his mourners,(B)
19 creating words of praise.”[a](C)
The Lord says,
“Peace, peace to the one who is far or near,(D)
and I will heal him.
