Jeremiah 20:16-18

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁶ And let that man be as the cities which the LORD overthrew and did not repent; and let him hear the cry in the morning and the shouting at noontide

¹⁷ because he did not slay me in the womb, and my mother would have been my grave, and her womb perpetual conception.

¹⁸ Why did I come forth out of the womb? To see labour and sorrow that my days should be consumed with shame?
