A mother who gives birth to seven sons will grow faint
    and breathe her last.
        She will die, ashamed and humiliated,
            while it is still daylight.
    I will put survivors from these people to death
    in the presence of their enemies,” declares Yahweh.

Jeremiah Complains Bitterly

10 I’m so miserable! Why did my mother give birth to me?
    I am a man who argues and quarrels with the whole earth.
    I have never lent or borrowed anything.

“I will certainly rescue you for a good reason.
    I will certainly make your enemies plead with you
    in times of disaster and in times of distress.
