Listen to my prayer; rescue me as you promised.
“And now, O Lord God, I am your servant; do as you have promised concerning me and my family. Confirm it as a promise that will last forever.
Lord, give me your unfailing love, the salvation that you promised me.
I am yours; rescue me! For I have worked hard at obeying your commandments.
Listen to my prayer for mercy as I cry out to you for help, as I lift my hands toward your holy sanctuary.
Turn your ear to listen to me; rescue me quickly. Be my rock of protection, a fortress where I will be safe.
Listen, my lord the king, I beg you. Don’t send me back to the dungeon in the house of Jonathan the secretary, for I will die there.”
Jeremiah the prophet. They said, “Please pray to the Lord your God for us. As you can see, we are only a tiny remnant compared to what we were before.
