Jeremiah 14:21

The Nation Hopes In Yahweh

²⁰ Lord, we confess that we have been wicked. We confess that our ancestors have done wrong. We have indeed sinned against you. ²¹ For the honor of your name, do not treat Jerusalem with contempt. Do not treat with disdain the place where your glorious throne sits. Be mindful of your covenant with us. Do not break it! ²² Do any of the worthless idols of the nations cause rain to fall? Do the skies themselves send showers? Is it not you, O Lord our God, who does this? So we put our hopes in you because you alone do all this."
