Jeremiah 20:16-18
1599 Geneva Bible
16 And let that man be as the [a]cities, which the Lord hath overturned and repented not: and let him hear the cry in the morning, and the shouting at noon tide,
17 Because he hath not slain me, even from the womb, or that my mother might have been my grave, or her womb a perpetual [b]conception.
18 How is it, that I came forth of the womb, to see labor and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
