Jeremiah 14:19-22
Lexham English Bible
19 Have you completely rejected Judah?
Or has your soul[a] loathed Zion?
Why have you struck us
so that there is no healing for us?
We hope for peace, but there is no good,
and for a time of healing, but look, there is terror.
20 We know, O Yahweh, our wickedness,
the iniquity of our ancestors,[b]
for we have sinned against you.
21 You must not spurn us[c] for the sake of your name,
you must not dishonor your glorious throne.[d]
Remember us![e]
You must not break your covenant with us.
22 Are there any among the idols of the nation who cause rain to pour?
Or can the heavens give showers?
Is it not you, O Yahweh our God?
Therefore, we hope in you, for you do all these things.
