Jeremiah 14:9-11
The Voice
9 Why do You seem surprised,
like a warrior who cannot defend us?
But we know You are here, among us even now.
Eternal One—we are Your people.
You know us by name;
do not disown us!
Eternal One: 10 (about His people) All this is true, but they love to wander from Me; they cannot control their restless feet—which are constantly running after other gods. That is why I won’t accept them and take them back. I will remember their guilt and hold them accountable for their sins.
11 (to Jeremiah) Do not pray for this people’s well being.
Jeremiah 14:9-11
New International Version
9 Why are you like a man taken by surprise,
like a warrior powerless to save?(A)
You are among(B) us, Lord,
and we bear your name;(C)
do not forsake(D) us!
10 This is what the Lord says about this people:
“They greatly love to wander;
they do not restrain their feet.(E)
So the Lord does not accept(F) them;
he will now remember(G) their wickedness
and punish them for their sins.”(H)
11 Then the Lord said to me, “Do not pray(I) for the well-being of this people.
