19 Have you rejected Judah completely?
    Has Zion become loathsome to you?
Why have you afflicted us
    to a point where we cannot be healed?
We hope for peace, but to no avail,
    for a time of healing, only to encounter terror.
20 Lord, we acknowledge our wickedness
    and the guilt of our fathers;
    we have indeed sinned against you.
21 For your name’s sake do not reject us;
    do not dishonor your glorious throne.
Remember your covenant with us
    and do not break it.
