Jeremiah 14:19-21

New Living Translation

¹⁹ Lord, have you completely rejected Judah?
    Do you really hate Jerusalem?^[a]
Why have you wounded us past all hope of healing?
    We hoped for peace, but no peace came.
    We hoped for a time of healing, but found only terror.
²⁰ Lord, we confess our wickedness
    and that of our ancestors, too.
    We all have sinned against you.
²¹ For the sake of your reputation, Lord, do not abandon us.
    Do not disgrace your own glorious throne.
Please remember us,
    and do not break your covenant with us.
