Jeremiah 15:9-11
New International Reader's Version
9 Mothers who have many children will grow weak.
They will take their last breath.
The sun will set on them while it is still day.
They will be dishonored and put to shame.
All those who are left alive I will kill by swords.
I will have their enemies do this,”
announces the Lord.
10 My mother, I wish I had never been born!
The whole land opposes me.
They fight against me.
I haven’t made loans to anyone.
And I haven’t borrowed anything.
But everyone curses me anyway.
11 The Lord said,
“Jeremiah, I will keep you safe for a good purpose.
I will make your enemies ask you to pray for them.
They will make their appeal to you
when they are in great trouble.

I will put the survivors to the sword(D)
before their enemies,”(E)
declares the Lord.
10 Alas, my mother, that you gave me birth,(F)
a man with whom the whole land strives and contends!(G)
I have neither lent(H) nor borrowed,
yet everyone curses(I) me.
11 The Lord said,
