Jeremiah 20:17-18

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁷ He should have killed me before I was born.
    I should have died inside my mother.
She would have held me inside her.
    That would have been my grave for ever.
¹⁸ I should have stayed in that safe place.
In my life, I only receive trouble and pain.
    When I die, all I will have is shame.
