Jeremiah 14:8-10
International Standard Version
8 Hope of Israel,
its deliverer in time of trouble,
why are you like a stranger[a] in the land,
like a traveler who sets up his tent for a night?
9 Why are you like a man taken by surprise,
like a strong man who can’t deliver?
You are among us, Lord,
and your name is the one by which we’re called.
Don’t abandon us!
God Responds to the Prophet
10 This is what the Lord says to these people:
“Yes, they do love to wander,
and they haven’t restrained their feet.
So the Lord won’t accept them now.
He will remember their iniquity
and punish their sin.”

like a warrior powerless to save?(D)
You are among(E) us, Lord,
and we bear your name;(F)
do not forsake(G) us!
