Jeremiah 14:8-10
1599 Geneva Bible
8 O thou hope of Israel, the savior thereof in the time of trouble, why art thou as a [a]stranger in the land, as one that passeth by, to tarry for a night?
9 Why art thou as a man astonied, and as [b]a strong man that cannot help? yet thou, O Lord, art in the midst of us, and thy name is called upon us: forsake us not.
10 Thus saith the Lord unto this people, Thus have they delighted to wander: they have not refrained their feet, therefore the Lord hath no delight in them: but he will now remember their iniquity, and visit their sins.

and we bear your name;(F)
do not forsake(G) us!
10 This is what the Lord says about this people:
