17 Because of the iniquity of his unjust gain I was angry;
I struck him; I hid My face; I was angry—
    but he went on backsliding in the way 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.
19 Creating the praise of lips:
Shalom, shalom to him who is far and to him who is near,’
    says Adonai, ‘and I will heal him.’”
