Jeremiah 14:20-22

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁰ We acknowledge our wickedness, O Lord,
    and the iniquity of our fathers,
    for we have sinned against thee.
²¹ Do not spurn us, for thy name’s sake;
    do not dishonor thy glorious throne;
    remember and do not break thy covenant with us.
²² Are there any among the false gods of the nations that can bring rain?
    Or can the heavens give showers?
Art thou not he, O Lord our God?
    We set our hope on thee,
    for thou doest all these things.
