Jeremiah 14:19-21
Good News Translation
The People Plead with the Lord
19 Lord, have you completely rejected Judah?
Do you hate the people of Zion?
Why have you hurt us so badly
that we cannot be healed?
We looked for peace, but nothing good happened;
we hoped for healing, but terror came instead.
20 We have sinned against you, Lord;
we confess our own sins
and the sins of our ancestors.
21 Remember your promises and do not despise us;
do not bring disgrace on Jerusalem,
the place of your glorious throne.
Do not break the covenant you made with us.

Jeremiah 14:19-21
New International Version
19 Have you rejected Judah completely?(A)
Do you despise Zion?
Why have you afflicted us
so that we cannot be healed?(B)
We hoped for peace
but no good has come,
for a time of healing
but there is only terror.(C)
20 We acknowledge(D) our wickedness, Lord,
and the guilt of our ancestors;(E)
we have indeed sinned(F) against you.
21 For the sake of your name(G) do not despise us;
do not dishonor your glorious throne.(H)
Remember your covenant(I) with us
and do not break it.
