30:12 耶和華如此說：你的損傷無法醫治；你的傷痕極其重大。
30:13 無人為你分訴，使你的傷痕得以纏裹；你沒有醫治的良藥。
30:14 你所親愛的都忘記你，不來探問（或譯：理會）你。我因你的罪孽甚大，罪惡眾多，曾用仇敵加的傷害傷害你，用殘忍者的懲治懲治你。
30:15 你為何因損傷哀號呢？你的痛苦無法醫治。我因你的罪孽甚大，罪惡眾多，曾將這些加在你身上。
30:16 故此，凡吞吃你的必被吞吃；你的敵人個個都被擄去；擄掠你的必成為擄物；搶奪你的必成為掠物。
30:17 耶和華說：我必使你痊癒，醫好你的傷痕，都因人稱你為被趕散的，說：這是錫安，無人來探問（或譯：理會）的！
12 “This is what the Lord says:
“‘Your wound is incurable,
your injury beyond healing.
13 There is no one to plead your cause,
no remedy for your sore,
no healing for you.
14 All your allies have forgotten you;
they care nothing for you.
I have struck you as an enemy would
and punished you as would the cruel,
because your guilt is so great
and your sins so many.
15 Why do you cry out over your wound,
your pain that has no cure?
Because of your great guilt and many sins
I
have done these things to you.
16 “‘But all who devour you will be
devoured;
all your enemies will go into exile.
Those who plunder you will be plundered;
all who make spoil of you I will despoil.
17 But I will restore you to health
and heal your wounds,’
declares the Lord,
‘because you are called an outcast,
Zion for whom no one cares.’

上帝透過耶利米再一次宣告祂的拯救：雖然上帝懲治錫安非常的嚴重，讓人覺得錫安好像丟棄，不被理會了！但是上帝並沒有永遠丟棄錫安，只是一時性的，上帝對錫安的保守是永遠的！
這就像基督徒，雖然在世上會遇到苦難、痛苦，好像上帝離棄，好像活在上帝的震怒之下！如同待宰的羊兒，好像沒有牧人保護一般。但是，上帝雖然讓他們的肉身受到傷害，卻讓他們在離世的時候，確定自己必定復活，進入上帝的國，享受永遠的福分！
也因此，我們要勇敢向苦難和死亡以及罪惡誇勝，因為耶穌基督已經在十字架上勝過這一切，使我們在不久的將來，必定與基督一同進入榮耀的上帝國，享受永生的福樂！那時，我們必得著基督復活一般榮耀的身體，是永不衰殘的！
