Contextual Overview
17 You will say to them, ‘Let my eyes flow with tears without stopping night and day. For my people have been crushed with a very hard beating. 18 If I go out to the country, I see those killed by the sword! Or if I go into the city, I see diseases because of hunger! For both the man who speaks for God and the religious leader have gone around and around in the land they do not know.'" 19 Have You nothing at all to do with Judah any more? Do You hate Zion? Why have You punished us so that we cannot be healed? We waited for peace, but nothing good came. We waited for a time of healing, but there is much trouble. 20 We know that we are sinful, O Lord, and we know the sin of our fathers. For we have sinned against You. 21 For the good of Your name do not hate us. Do not put to shame the throne of Your shining-greatness. Remember and do not break Your agreement with us. 22 Are there any among the false gods of the nations who give rain? Or can the heavens give rain? Is it not You, O Lord our God? So 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.
