Jeremiah 14:7
_ _ do thou it — what we beg of Thee; interpose to remove the drought. Jeremiah pleads in the name of his nation (Psalms 109:21). So “work for us,” absolutely used (1 Samuel 14:6).
_ _ for thy name’s sake — “for our backslidings are so many” that we cannot urge Thee for the sake of our doings, but for the glory of Thy name; lest, if Thou give us not aid, it should be said it was owing to Thy want of power (Joshua 7:9; Psalms 79:9; Psalms 106:8; Isaiah 48:9; Ezekiel 20:44). The same appeal to God’s mercy, “for His name’s sake,” as our only hope, since our sin precludes trust in ourselves, occurs in Psalms 25:11. |
Jeremiah 14:7
Testify — That thou art righteous in what thou hast done. Do thou it — Do thou what we stand in need of; give us rain, though not for our sake, we deserve no such kindness from thee, yet for thy names sake: thy promise, or for thine honour and glory. |

(f) 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.
