Jeremiah 14:19-22

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁹ Have you completely rejected Judah?
Do you detest^(A) Zion?
Why do you strike us
with no hope of healing for us?
We hoped for peace,
but there was nothing good;
for a time of healing,
but there was only terror.^(B)
20 We acknowledge our wickedness, Lord,
the iniquity of our ancestors;^(C)
indeed, we have sinned against you.
²¹ For your name’s sake, don’t despise us.
Don’t disdain your glorious throne.^(D)
Remember your covenant^(E) with us;
do not break it.
²² Can any of the worthless idols of the nations^(F) bring rain?
Or can the skies alone give showers?
Are you not the Lord our God?
We therefore put our hope in you,^(G)
for you have done all these things.
