Jeremiah
Chapters 20:14-18
Revised Version 1885
14Cursed be the day wherein I was born: let not the day wherein my mother bare me be blessed.
15Cursed be the man who brought tidings to my father, saying, A man child is born unto thee; making him very glad.
16And let that man be as the cities which the Lord overthrew, and repented not: and let him hear a cry in the morning, and shouting at noontide;
17because he slew me not from the womb; and so my mother should have been my grave, and her womb always great.
18Wherefore came I forth out of the womb to see labour and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
