Jeremiah 14:19-21

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁹ Have you completely rejected Judah?
    Does your heart loathe Zion?
Why have you struck us down
    so that there is no healing for us?
We look for peace, but find no good;
    for a time of healing, but there is terror instead.
²⁰ We acknowledge our wickedness, O Lord,
    the iniquity of our ancestors,
    for we have sinned against you.
²¹ Do not spurn us, for your name’s sake;
    do not dishonor your glorious throne;
    remember and do not break your covenant with us.
