Jeremiah 14:19

The People Plead for Mercy
19 (A)Have You utterly rejected Judah?
Has Your soul loathed Zion?

(C)We looked for peace, but there was no good;
And for the time of healing, and there was trouble.

Romans 11:1-6
New King James Version
Israel’s Rejection Not Total
11 I say then, (A)has God cast away His people? (B)Certainly not! For (C)I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. 2 God has not cast away His people whom (D)He foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel, saying, 3 (E)“Lord, they have killed Your prophets and torn down Your altars, and I alone am left, and they seek my life”? 4 But what does the divine response say to him? (F)“I have reserved for Myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal.” 5 (G)Even so then, at this present time there is a remnant according to the election of grace. 6 And (H)if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. [a]But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.

Watching vainly for our help;

For a nation that could not save us.

O virgin daughter of Zion?
For your ruin is spread wide as the sea;
Who can heal you?
