Then behold, those slain with the sword!
And if I enter the city,
Then behold, those sick from famine!
Yes, both prophet and bpriest go about in a land they do not know.’ ”
The People Plead for Mercy
Has Your soul loathed Zion?
Why have You stricken us so that bthere is no healing for us?
cWe looked for peace, but there was no good;
And for the time of healing, and there was trouble.
And the iniquity of our afathers,
For bwe have sinned against You.
Do not disgrace the throne of Your glory.
aRemember, do not break Your covenant with us.
Or can the heavens give showers?
dAre You not He, O Lord our God?
Therefore we will wait for You,
Since You have made all these.

Jeremiah 14:20
We acknowledge, O Lord, our wickedness - This the prophet did in behalf of the people; but, alas! they did not join him.
