[19] Hast thou utterly Judah? hath thy soul lothed Zion? why hast thou smitten us, and there is no healing for us? we looked for peace, and there is no good; and for the time of healing, and behold trouble! [20] We acknowledge, O LORD, our wickedness, and the iniquity of our fathers: for we have sinned against thee. [21] Do not abhor us, for thy name's sake, do not disgrace the throne of thy glory: remember, break not thy covenant [22] Are there any among the vanities of the Gentiles that can cause rain? or can the heavens give showers? art not thou he, O LORD our God? therefore we will wait upon thee: for thou hast made all these things.
