Gill's Notes on the Bible

Why shouldest thou be as a man astonied,.... Astonished, and so surprised as not to know what to say or do; or "asleep", as the Septuagint; taking no notice of us, and being altogether unconcerned what becomes of us; or, as one "dumb" i; that will give no answer to our prayers:

as a mighty man that cannot save? who, though he is able to save, yet, through want of a heart or will, does not exert his power:

yet thou, O Lord, art in the midst of us; having his residence and dwelling in the temple at Jerusalem; and therefore was not a stranger and foreigner among them; and this carries in it an entreaty and an argument that he would not in his providence conduct towards them in such manner as though he was:

and we are called by thy name; the people of God, the Israel of God, and the like:

leave us not; in our distress and trouble, but deliver us out of it.

i נדהם "obmutefactus", Fosterus, Mercerus,

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Astonied - The word may possibly mean “one who is taken by surprise and loses his presence of mind.”

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Jeremiah 14:9. Yet thou, O Lord, art in the midst of us — Thy ark, temple, and sacred rites, are all here; and thou thyself, who art every where present, art here also: but alas! thou dost not reveal thyself as the Father of mercies, who forgivest iniquity, transgression, and sin.

We are called by thy name; leave us not. — Let us call thee our Father, and say thou to us, "Ye are my sons and daughters!" O leave us not!
