Jeremiah 14:7
O LORD, though our iniquities testify against us, do thou it for thy name’s sake: for our backslidings are many; we have sinned against thee.
KJV
Si iniquitates nostræ responderint nobis, Domine, fac propter nomen tuum : quoniam multæ sunt aversiones nostræ : tibi peccavimus.
Vulgate
Αἱ ἁμαρτίαι ἡμῶν ἀντέστησαν ἡμῖν· Κύριε, ποίησον ἡμῖν ἕνεκεν σοῦ, ὅτι πολλαὶ αἱ ἁμαρτίαι ἡμῶν ἐναντίον σοῦ, ὅτι σοὶ ἡμάρτομεν.
LXX
Though our iniquities testify against us, work thou for thy name’s sake, O Jehovah; for our backslidings are many; we have sinned against thee.
