Jeremiah 14:18-20
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
18 If I walk out into the field,
look! those slain by the sword;
If I enter the city,
look! victims of famine.
Both prophet and priest ply their trade
in a land they do not know.
19 Have you really cast Judah off?
Is Zion loathsome to you?
Why have you struck us a blow
that cannot be healed?
We wait for peace, to no avail;
for a time of healing, but terror comes instead.(A)
20 We recognize our wickedness, Lord,
the guilt of our ancestors:
we have sinned against you.(B)

19 Have you rejected Judah completely?(C)
Do you despise Zion?
Why have you afflicted us
so that we cannot be healed?(D)

for a time of healing
but there is only terror.(E)
20 We acknowledge(F) our wickedness, Lord,
and the guilt of our ancestors;(G)
we have indeed sinned(H) against you.
