Jeremiah 14:19

The Nation Hopes In Yahweh

¹⁸ ‘If I go out to the country,
Behold, those slain with the sword!
Or if I enter the city,
Behold, diseases of famine!
For both prophet and priest
Have gone roving about in the land that they do not know.’”
¹⁹ Have You completely rejected Judah?
Or have You loathed Zion?
Why have You stricken us so that we are beyond healing?
We waited for peace, but nothing good came;
And for a time of healing, but behold, terror!
²⁰ We know our wickedness, O Lord,
The iniquity of our fathers, for we have sinned against You.
