Jeremiah 14:20-22

Common English Bible

²⁰ We acknowledge our sin, Lord,
    the wrongdoing of our ancestors,
        because we have sinned against you.
²¹ For your name’s sake, don’t reject us,
    don’t scorn your glorious throne.
Remember your covenant with us;
    don’t break it.
²² Can any of the false gods of the nations make it rain?
    Can the sky by itself bring showers?
Aren’t you the Lord, our God?
    You are our hope,
        since only you can do such things.
