Jeremiah 14:7-9
New International Version
7 Although our sins testify(A) against us,
do something, Lord, for the sake of your name.(B)
For we have often rebelled;(C)
we have sinned(D) against you.
8 You who are the hope(E) of Israel,
its Savior(F) in times of distress,(G)
why are you like a stranger in the land,
like a traveler who stays only a night?
9 Why are you like a man taken by surprise,
like a warrior powerless to save?(H)
You are among(I) us, Lord,
and we bear your name;(J)
do not forsake(K) us!
Jeremiah 14:7-9
Lexham English Bible
7 Although our iniquities testify against us, O Yahweh,
act for the sake of your name.
Yes, our apostasies are many;
we have sinned against you.
8 You are the hope of Israel,
its savior in time of distress.
Why should you be like an alien in the land,
or like a traveler who spreads out his tent [a] to spend the night?
9 Why should you be like a confused man,
like a warrior who is not able to help?
Yet you are in our midst, O Yahweh,
and your name is called upon us.
You must not leave us!
