Jeremiah 20:17-18

Expanded Bible

¹⁷ because he did not kill me ·before I was born [^Lin the womb; 1:5].
    Then my mother would have been my grave;
    she would have stayed pregnant forever.
¹⁸ Why did I have to come out of ·my mother’s body [the womb]?
    All I have known is trouble and sorrow,
    and my ·life [days] will end in ·shame [humiliation; Job 3].
