Jeremiah 14:7-9

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁷     Do something, Lord, for the sake of your name,
    even though our guilt testifies against us.
    We have rebelled many times,
    and we have sinned against you.
⁸     You are Israel’s hope,
    its Savior in times of trouble.
    Why are you like a stranger in the land,
    like a traveler who stays only for the night?
⁹     Why are you like a man taken by surprise,
    like a strong warrior who cannot save?
    You are among us, Lord,
    and we are called by your name.
    Do not forsake us!
