Jeremiah 14:7-9
Modern English Version
7 O Lord, though our iniquities testify against us,
do it for Your name’s sake.
Indeed, our backslidings are many;
we have sinned against You.
8 O the Hope of Israel,
its Savior in time of trouble,
why should You be as a stranger in the land,
and as a wayfaring man who turns aside to pitch his tent for a night?
9 Why should You be as a man dismayed,
as a mighty man who cannot save?
Yet You, O Lord, are in our midst,
and we are called by Your name.
Do not forsake us!
Jeremiah 14:7-9
Authorized (King James) Version
7 O Lord, though our iniquities testify against us,
do thou it for thy name’s sake:
for our backslidings are many;
we have sinned against thee.
8 O the hope of Israel, the saviour thereof in time of trouble,
why shouldest thou be as a stranger in the land,
and as a wayfaring man that turneth aside to tarry for a night?
9 Why shouldest thou be as a man astonied,
as a mighty man that cannot save?
yet thou, O Lord, art in the midst of us,
and we are called by thy name;
leave us not.
