18  I have seen his ways, ^ubut I will heal him;

I will lead him ^vand restore comfort to him and his mourners,

19  ^wcreating ^xthe fruit of the lips.

^yPeace, peace, ^zto the far and to the near,” says the Lord,

^u“and I will heal him.

20  ^aBut the wicked are like the tossing sea;

for it cannot be quiet,

and its waters toss up mire and dirt.

21  ^bThere is no peace,” says my God, “for the wicked.”
