Contextual Overview
17And you will say this word to them,‘Let my eyes flow down with tears night and day,And let them not cease,For the virgin daughter of my people has been shattered with a mighty shattering,With a sorely sick wound. 18If I go out to the field,Behold, those slain with the sword!Or if I enter the city,Behold, diseases of famine!For both prophet and priestHave gone around as merchants in the land that they do not know.'" 19Have You completely rejected Judah?Or have You loathed Zion?Why have You stricken us so that there is no healing for us?We hoped for peace, but there was no good;And for a time of healing, but behold, terror! 20We know our wickedness, O Yahweh,The iniquity of our fathers, for we have sinned against You. 21Do not despise us, for Your own name's sake;Do not disgrace the throne of Your glory;Remember and do not break Your covenant with us. 22Are there any among the idols of the nations who give rain?Or can the heavens give showers?Is it not You, O Yahweh our God?Therefore we hope in You,For You are the one who has done all these things.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
We acknowledge, O Lord, our wickedness, and the iniquity of our fathers,.... This is said by the prophet, in the name of the few faithful that were among this people, who were sensible of their own sins, the sins of their ancestors, and which they ingenuously confess; their fathers had sinned, and they had imitated them, and continued in the same, and therefore might justly expect the displeasure of the Lord, and his controversy with them:
for we have sinned against thee; Jeremiah 14:7.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
A second (compare Jeremiah 14:7-9) earnest intercession, acknowledging the wickedness of the nation, but appealing to the covenant and to God’s Almighty power.
Lothed - More exactly, “hath thrown away as worthless.”
Jeremiah 14:20
Our wickedness, and - Omit and. National sin is the sin of the fathers, perpetuated generation after generation by the children.
Jeremiah 14:21
This verse is in the original very emphatic, and consists of a series of broken ejaculations: “Abhor not for thy name’s sake! Disgrace - lightly esteem” in Deuteronomy 32:15 - “not the throne of thy glory! Remember! Break not etc. with us!” The throne of Yahweh’s glory is Jerusalem.
Jeremiah 14:22
None of the idols of the Gentiles can put an end to this present distress.
Art not thou he, O Lord our God! - Rather, “art thou not Yahweh our God?”
Thou hast made all these things - i. e., the heaven with its showers.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 14:20. We acknowledge, O Lord, our wickedness — This the prophet did in behalf of the people; but, alas! they did not join him.
