Jeremiah 14:9
Why are You like a man taken by surprise, like a warrior powerless to save? Yet You are among us, O Lord, and we are called by Your name. Do not forsake us!
Why shouldest thou be as a man astonied, as a mighty man that cannot save? yet thou, O Lord, art in the midst of us, and we are called by thy name; leave us not.
Note we…: Heb. thy name is called upon us
Why should you be like a scared man, as a mighty man who can’t save? Yet you, Lord, are in the middle of us, and we are called by your name. Don’t leave us.
Why shouldest thou be as a man affrighted, as a mighty man that cannot save? Yet thou, O Jehovah, art in the midst of us, and we are called by thy name; leave us not.
